Abstract: The invention was carried out to study the response of chickpea cv. Mahamaya - I to the rock phosphate, single super
pho~phate and phosphate solubilizers. The results revealed that the residual effect of rock phosphate along with phosphate
solubilizers proved significantly superior to residual effect of single super phosphate with respect to plant height, dry matter
accumulation and dry root weight. The residual effect of 60 kg P2O5 ha-1 as rock phosphate and phosphate solubil izihg
bacteria, applied to kharif rice, gave the maximum plant height, dry matter accumulation and nodulation of chickpea.
