 ABSTRACT

A field experiment was conducted on clay loam soil texture with pH of 6.9 and EC is 0.51 dSm-1 on cowpea with twelve treatments in a randomized block design during the year of summer 2014 at Experimental Farm, Annamalai Univeristy, Annamalainagar to evaluate the impact of foliar nutrition and phosphobacteria on growth and yield of cowpea. Application of phosphobacteria along with diammonium phosphate spray by two times and combined with panchagavya at 15, 25 and at 35 days after sowing significantly influenced on growth and yield parameters of cowpea compared with control.

Key words: Cowpea, Foliar fertilization, Phosphobacteria, Seed treatment and Panchagavya
