Abstract:
The present investigation aims to know the effect of fungicidal, insecticidal and biological seed treatment individually and in combination at yield attributing characters of chickpea. Chickpea variety KWR-108 seed were treated with following treatments carbendazim @ 0.1% (T₁), imidacloprid @ 0.1% (T₂), rhizobium + PSB @ 2.5 g each /100g seed (T₃), Trichoderma harzianum @ 0.2% (T₄), carbendazim @ 0.1% + imidacloprid @ 0.1% (T₅), [rhizobium + PSB] @ 2.5 g each /100g seed + (Trichoderma harzianum) @ 0.2% (T₆), carbendazim @ 0.1% + imidacloprid @ 0.1% + rhizobium + PSB @ 2.5 g each /100g seed (T₇), carbendazim @ 0.1% + imidacloprid @ 0.1% +([rhizobium + PSB) @ 2.5 g each /100g seed + Trichoderma harzianum @ 0.2% (T₈) and control (T₀) and sowed in Randomized Block Design at Oil Seed Farm of C. S. Azad University of Agriculture & Technology Kanpur. Recommended package and practices were applied and yield attributing characters viz. number of pod plant^-1, number of seed plant^-1, seed yield plot^-1 (kg.) and test weight of seed were recorded and this investigation revealed treatment T₈ showed significantly superior performance followed by treatment T₇.
