Abstract

A field experiment was conducted during <italic>Kharif</italic> season 2014 at the Research farm of Soil Science Allahabad School of Agriculture, laid out in randomized block design on sandy loam soil, containing sand 62.71%, silt 23.10% and clay 14.19% (Inceptisols). It was observed that for post harvest soil properties in treatment N<sub>20</sub>+ FYM @ 10 t ha<sup>−1</sup> and <italic>Rhizobium</italic> P<sub>40</sub>K<sub>40</sub> were improved significantly due to integrated use of inputs. Organic carbon-0.75%, available nitrogen- 333.23 kg ha<sup>−1</sup>, phosphorus- 34.58 kg ha<sup>−1</sup>, potassium -205.83 kg ha<sup>−1</sup>, pore space -50.80 %, pH -6.80 were found to be significant and bulk density -1.07 Mgm<sup>−3</sup>, particle density -2.62 Mgm<sup>−3</sup>, EC at 27°C -0.24 dSm<sup>−1</sup> were found to be non-significantly improved in this treatment.
