Abstract: The field experiment was conducted in the year 2020 to evaluate the effect of PSB, VAM and phosphorus (P) levels on the growth of shoot and root of chickpea crop. The experiment was done in a Randomized Block Design comparing 12 treatments with 3 replications involving Biofertilizers (No innocuation, VAM, PSB, VAM+PSB) and 3 doses of Phosphorus (0%, 50%,100%)recommended fertilizer dose for study the growth of shoot and chickpea. Biofertilizer inoculation enhancing overall plant root and shoot parameter. Thus the combine inoculation with phosphorus progressively enhances the growth of chickpea.
