This present study was elucidated the effects of different pre sowing seed treatments on stored seeds of Desi Chickpea seeds. Seeds were stored in plastic bags for one planting season, i.e. 8 months under ambient and control conditions of Prayagraj. After storage, seeds were treated with different doses of Polyethylene Glycol 6000, sodium chloride, magnetic and electric seed treatments. Observations showed that the seeds stored in plastic bags for eight months ageing treatments displayed that the seedling parameters were also found more affected in Polyethylene Glycol as compared to sodium chloride, magnetic and electric seed treatments. Germination and vigour percentage decreased with the period of ageing. Seeds of Chickpea (DCP-92) are stored in plastic bags were affected due to storage but the effects were more pronounced in PEG 6000 as compared to other treatments.
