A field experiment was conducted during Kharif season 2014 at the Research farm of Soil Science, Allahabad School of Agriculture, laid out in randomized block design, consisted nine treatments and three replications, it was observed that growth and yield of green gram in treatment N 20 P 40 K 40 + FYM @10 t ha -1 and Rhizobium was maximum. Maximum plant height 50.66 cm, number of leaves plant -1 33.00, number of branches plant -1 4.66 at 60 DAS, number of cluster plant -1 9.33, number of pods plant -1 37.33 and total seed yield 12.10 q ha -1 were found to be significant over all other treatment. Adequate plant nutrient supply holds the key for improving the growth and food grain production of crop.

A field experiment was conducted during <italic>Kharif</italic> season 2014 at the Research farm of Soil Science Allahabad School of Agriculture, laid out in randomized block design on sandy loam soil, containing sand 62.71%, silt 23.10% and clay 14.19% (Inceptisols). It was observed that for post harvest soil properties in treatment N₂₀+ FYM @ 10 t ha⁻¹ and <italic>Rhizobium</italic> P₄₀K₄₀ were improved significantly due to integrated use of inputs. Organic carbon-0.75%, available nitrogen- 333.23 kg ha⁻¹, phosphorus- 34.58 kg ha⁻¹, potassium -205.83 kg ha⁻¹, pore space -50.80 %, pH -6.80 were found to be significant and bulk density -1.07 Mgm⁻³, particle density -2.62 Mgm⁻³, EC at 27°C -0.24 dSm⁻¹ were found to be non-significantly improved in this treatment.
