The investigation was conducted at farmer field (Kallur Village), Manvi Tq., Raichur Dt. The soil was clayey in nature and slightly alkaline (7.9) in reaction, low in nitrogen as well as available phosphorus and rich in available potassium. The environmental conditions were favorably congenial for normal growth and maturity of pigeonpea crop. The experiment was laid out in Randomized Block Design with three replications and ten treatments. The results revealed that the application of 150 per cent recommended dose of fertilizers (T4) significantly found higher plant height at harvest stage (183.55 cm) followed by T7: soil test based N ± 25% and P ± 50% (181.88 cm). The dry matter production at harvest was higher (236.85 g plant-1) in T4 compared to other treatments. However, application of 150 per cent recommended dose of fertilizer nutrient approach significantly increased the yields of crops over other nutrient approaches. The maximum pigeonpea seed yield, stalk yield, husk yields and harvest index were 1743, 3247 and 1257 kg ha-1, respectively.
