Abstract: A field experiment was conducted to find out the Zinc and Spacing on growth and yield of chickpea (var. Pusa 362) with nine treatments in the rabi 2019. With the different levels of Spacing (30 cm, 40 cm, 50 cm) and with the application of Zinc (10, 15, 20 kg ZnSO4/ha) respectively, at Crop Research Farm, Department of Agronomy, Faculty of Agriculture, SHUATS, Prayagraj, Uttar Pradesh. By all these findings maximum plant height was recorded significantly higher viz., 68.00 cm, Number of root nodules recorded (3.94) and Economics viz., Gross return (₹ 111445/ha), net return (₹ 73599.3/ha) and B:C ratio (2.94) was recorded in treatment with the application of Spacing 30 cm + 20 kg ZnSO4. Therefore, application of Zinc 20 kg/ha + Spacing 30 cm was more productive and economically feasible.
