Abstract: A field experiment was conducted at Krishi Vignana Kendra, Kalaburagi, University of Agricultural Sciences, Raichur, conducted during rabi 2015-16. To study the “Nutrient management in chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.) in black soil under rainfed situation with an objective to assess soil physical and chemical properties for efficient nutrient management practices. The findings convey that, lower EC was recorded in the T11. Hence it worth to note that, The decrease in soil pH might be attributed to the release of organic acids during the microbial decomposition of added organic manures and increased the enzymatic activity in soil. Further, it also stated that, the productivity of soils can be examined by physical and chemical properties of soils. Hence the study suggests that the proportion of pH, electronic conductivity and Organic carbon directly affected by microbiological processes that encourage nutrient cycling, water holding capacity, pH buffering and cation exchange capacity activities.
