- Intervention effect Tillage practice significantly affected nodules weight, 1.15 g plant-1 under deep tillage.
- Intervention effect Tillage practice significantly affected plant height, 83.3 cm under deep tillage.
- Intervention effect Tillage practice significantly affected number of branches per plant (11) and days to maturity (196) under deep tillage.
- Intervention effect Tillage practice significantly affected grain yield, 1447 kg ha-1 under deep tillage.
- Intervention effect Tillage practice significantly affected biological yield (4155 kg ha-1) and harvest index (37.5 %) under deep tillage.
- Intervention effect Tillage practice did not significantly affect days to emergence, emergence m-2, days to 50% flowering, number of nodules, pods per plant, grains per pod or pods m-2.
- Intervention effect Potassium had a significant impact on days to maturity (196).
- Intervention effect Potassium had a significant impact on number of nodules, 16.0 plant-1.
- Intervention effect Potassium had a significant impact on nodules weight, 1.10 g plant-1.
- Intervention effect Potassium had a significant impact on plant height, 81.3 cm.
- Intervention effect Potassium had a significant impact on number of pods per plant (33.5) and pods m-2 (837).
- Intervention effect Potassium had a significant impact on 100 grain weight, 25.3 g.
- Intervention effect Potassium had a significant impact on grain yield, 1483 kg ha-1.
- Intervention effect Potassium had a significant impact on biological yield (4244 kg ha-1) and harvest index (37.6 %).
- Intervention effect Potassium did not significantly affect days to emergence, emergence m-2, weed density, weeds dry and fresh weight, branches per plant or days to 50% flowering.
- Intervention effect The tillage by potassium interaction was significant only for 50 % flowering and non-significant for the other parameters.
- Recommendation The authors conclude that potassium at 60 kg ha-1 improved growth and productivity in the Peshawar region.
