Impact of Nitrogen and Zinc Levels on Growth and Yield of Desi Chickpea (Cicer arietinum L)

Background: Chickpea is the largest produced food legume in south Asia and third globally, after common bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) field pea (Pisum sativum Chick widely appreciated as health food. It a protein-rich supplement to cereal-based diets, especially poor developing countries.
 Objectives: Effects of nitrogen zinc levels on growth yield pea.
 Methods: A study was conducted determine effect chickpea (Cicer arietinum var Pusa-362 under Randomized Block Design with 9 treatments each replicated thrice. The results reported that application 30 kg/ha Nitrogen+15 Zinc (treatment -9) recorded significantly higher plant height (58.40 cm), maximum number nodules/plant (21.70), dry weight (24.0 g/plant), Maximum pods/plant (71.10), seeds/pod (1.80), seed (3.21 t/ha) stover (4.31 were Zinc.
 Conclusion: Based above findings investigation it may be concluded treatment Nitrogen 15 all parameters obtaining grain These are based single season, therefore additional testing necessary for further validation.
