Abstract: A field experiment was carried out at Rajasthan College of Agriculture, MPUAT, Udaipur, to study response of barley (Hordeum vulgare L.) to nutrient levels and biofertilizers during the rabi seasons of 2015-16 and 2016-17. The experiment was conducted in split-plot design with three nutrient levels viz. 50% of the recommended dose (RD), 75% of the recommended dose (RD), 100% of the recommended dose (RD) in main plot and 5 biofertilizers, viz. Azotobacter, phosphate solubilizing bacteria (PSB), Azotobacter + PSB, biomix and control in sub plots. The growth attributes, yield and yield attributes were the maximum with 100% recommended dose (RD) as compared to rest nutrient levels. The application of 100% of the recommended dose (RD) also registered the maximum gross, net return and B-C ratio of barley. The application of biomix resulted in highest grain, straw and biological yield of barley as compared to control, alone and combine application with Azotobacter and PSB. The maximum yield of barley was recorded with the combined application of 100% recommended dose (RD) + biomix over rest of the treatment combinations.
