A field experiment was conducted during Kharif season of 2016 at College of Agriculture, Gwalior with a view to assess the effect of crop geometry and fertility levels on growth and productivity of Clusterbean. Experiment was laid out as randomized block design(RBD) replicated thrice with 10 treatments. The study revealed that among different crop geometry treatments, reducing 25% plant population (by increased plant intra-row spacing) gave significantly higher values of all growth attributes viz., plant height and number of branches/plant; yield attributes viz., number of pods/plant, number of seeds/pod and seed index and yield viz.; seed and stover (kg/ha) over normal plant population 45cmx10cm and increasing 25% plant population, respectively. | Crop geometry and fertility levels effect on growth and productivity of clusterbean [Cyamopsis tetragonoloba (L.)

Similarly, among different fertility 10 March 2020 levels, application of Zn and B as a basal dose @ 5kg Zn/ha and @ 1 kg B/ha produced higher values of all growth attributes and yield attributes over rest of the treatments.
