- Intervention effect Application of 80 kg P2O5/ha, on par with 40 kg P2O5/ha + PSB + AM, significantly raised pigeonpea growth parameters and yield attributes (except 1,000-grain weight) over the control and 40 kg P2O5/ha.
- Intervention effect Application of 80 kg P2O5/ha, on par with 40 kg P2O5/ha + PSB + AM, significantly raised pigeonpea grain yield (1.67 and 1.87 t/ha) over control (1.18 and 1.41 t/ha) and 40 kg P2O5/ha (1.43 and 1.64 t/ha).
- Intervention effect Application of 80 kg P2O5/ha, on par with 40 kg P2O5/ha + PSB + AM, significantly raised pigeonpea stalk yield over control.
- Intervention effect The phosphorus treatments had a similar effect on pigeonpea grain P content and total P uptake (12.31 and 13.75 kg/ha) relative to the rest of the treatments.
- Intervention effect The phosphorus treatments had a similar effect on pigeonpea stalk P content and total P uptake (11.82 and 13.19 kg/ha) relative to the rest of the treatments.
- Intervention effect Application of 80 kg P2O5/ha, on par with 40 kg P2O5/ha + PSB + AM, gave significantly higher pigeonpea equivalent yield (1.84 and 2.11 t/ha) than the rest of the treatments.
- Intervention effect On average 40 kg P2O5/ha + PSB + AM gave higher net returns and B:C ratio than the remaining treatments.
