Abstract: The present investigation “Effect biofortification of zinc and iron on yield attributes of chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.) Through agronomic intervention†was carried out during Rabi season in 2018-19 as Instructional Cum Research Farm of IGKV, Raipur (Chattisgarh). The experiment was conducted on vertisols soil, which was neutral in soil pH (7.4), low in available nitrogen (226.76 kg ha-1), medium in available phosphorus (12.36 kg ha-1) and high in available potassium (374.34 kg ha-1). The experiment was laid out in Split Plot Design with four replications. The experiment consist of two varieties and six different treatment combination. The significant variation was found in chickpea varieties and different treatment combinations. The maximum number of pods/ plant, more number of seed/ plant and seed yields was reported in treatment RDF+ ZnSO4 and FeSO4 through foliar application at pre flowering and pod formation stage followed by treatment RDF+ Soil application of ZnSO4 @ 25 kg/ha at basal compared to other treatment and lowest in RDF (Standard control) where as 100 seed weight of chickpea showing non significant results. The variety indira chana-1 showing maximum number of pods/ plant, more number of seed/ plant, 100 seed weight and seed yields than variety vaibhav.
