Abstract: The field experiment was conducted during rabi season of 2017-18 at the Research cum Instructional Farm, under all India Coordinated Research Project on MULLaRP, Department of Agronomy, College of Agriculture, I.G.K.V. Raipur (CG.) on “Effect of irrigation and foliar spray of nutrients and growth hormones on growth, yield attributes and yield of lentil†The experiment was laid out in Strip Plot Design having the combination of fourteen treatments and three replications. The treatment consisted of seven foliar nutrients spray and two irrigation levels. The experiment was comprised of factor A. Horizontal plot (Irrigation level-2) I1-One irrigation (35 DAS), I2-Two irrigation (35 and 65 DAS) B. Vertical plot (Foliar Spray-7) F1-Water Spray, F2-Nitrobenzene @ 0.3%, F3-N: P: K:: 19:19:19 @ 1% solution, F4-Multi micro nutrient (Fe, Mn, Zn, B, Cu, Mo) @ 0.1%, F5-Plant growth hormones mixture (Cytokinins and Enzymes) @ 0.15%, F6-N: P: K:: 19:19:19 @ 1% + Multi micro nutrient (Fe, Mn, Zn, B, Cu, Mo) @ 0.1%, F7-N: P: K:: 19:19:19 + Multi micro nutrients + Plant growth hormones. Significantly maximum seed yield (1189.05 kg ha-1) and stover yield (1955.52 kg ha-1) was observed under the I2-Two irrigation. The minimum seed yield (1041.43 kg ha-1) and stover yield (1595.10 kg ha-1) was observed under the I1-One irrigation due to optimum plant population and superior growth and yield attributes. As regards to foliar spray of nutrient, F7-N: P: K:: 19:19:19 + MMN + PGHM produced significantly higher seed yield (1320.0 kg ha-1) and stover yield (2109.17 kg ha-1) as compare to other foliar spray of nutrients. However, it was at par to treatment F6- N: P: K:: 19:19:19: + MMN. The lowest seed yield (868.33 kg ha-1) and stover yield (1327.83 kg ha-1) was observed with F1-Control (water spray).
