The present investigation was carried out during kharif season 2014 to assess the effect of different levels of phosphorus and sulphur on growth, yield attributes and yield. The experiment comprising 16 treatment combinations replicated three times, with four levels of phosphorus (Control, 20, 40 and 60 kg P2O5 ha-1) and four levels of sulphur (0, 15, 30 and 45 kg S ha-1), respectively. Application of phosphorus upto 40 kg ha-1 significantly increased total and effective root nodules per plant, total leaf chlorophyll content, number of pods per plant, number of seeds per pod, test weight, seed yield, straw yield, protein content, gum content and gum yield. Whereas, the total and effective root nodules per plant, total leaf chlorophyll content, number of pods per plant, number of seeds per pod, test weight, seed yield, straw yield, protein content, gum content and gum yield significantly increased by application of 45 kg S ha-1over control, 15 and 30 kg S ha-1.
