From the original paperIntroduction
Cluster bean [Cyamopsis tetragonoloba L. Taub] popularly referred as "Guar" is vegetable crop of Indian origin belonging to the family lenguminoceae [1] . It is an important legume crop mainly grown under irrigated as well as un irrigated condition during summer and rainy season. There is no other legume crop so hardy and drought tolerant as guar, which is particularly suited for the soil and climate of Agra region. Its tender green pods are used for culinary purpose and whole plant is used a roughages for cattle. There is a big demand for Indian gum products, food additives, and food thickener, Guar seed endosperm gum is used in numerous industries, including textiles, confectioneries, medicines, and cosmetics [2]. The aim of integrated nutritional management is to integrate the use of natural and artificial soil nutrients to increase crop productivity and maintain soil fertility without impairing soil health for future generations. In long-term imbalanced use of inorganic fertilizers will not maintain higher yields over the years due to paucity of secondary nutrients will result deterioration physical and chemical properties. Increased use of fertilizer will undoubtedly increase the production of raw materials significantly, but in the sustainable fertility it will have a negative impact on soil health. In case of INM approach, careful application of all nutrients can sustainably improve soil fertility and economic yields [3]. This current study shows the actual impact of the integrated use of inorganic fertilizers combined with organic fertilizers and bio-fertilizers on the growth, and quality of cluster ban and sustainable soil fertility.

Treatment details: following treatment combination
viz. T 1 {Control 100% RDF (25:60:60) N: P: K kg ha - 1 }, T 2 { RDF +Bio-fertilizers (Rhizobium 25 g kg -1 seed +PSB 5 kg ha -1 )},T 3 {FYM (25 t ha -1 )}, T 4 {Vermicompost (10 t ha -1 )}, T 5 {75% RDF through inorganic fertilizers + 25% RDF through vermicompost + Bio-fertilizers (Rhizobium 25 g kg -1 seed + PSB 5 kg ha -1 )}, T 6 {75% RDF through inorganic fertilizers + 25% RDF through FYM + Bio-fertilizers (Rhizobium 25 g kg -1 seed + PSB 5 kg ha -1 )}, T 7 {50% RDF through inorganic fertilizers + 50% RDF through FYM + Biofertilizers (Rhizobium 25 g kg -1 seed +PSB 5 kg ha -1 )}, T 8 {50% RDF through inorganic fertilizers + 50% RDF through vermicompost + Bio-fertilizers (Rhizobium 25 g kg -1 seed + PSB 5 kg ha -1 )}, T 9 {FYM (25 t ha -1 ) + Bio-fertilizers (Rhizobium 25 g kg -1 seed + PSB 5 kg ha -1 )}, T 10 {Vermicompost (10 t ha -1 ) + Bio-fertilizers (Rhizobium 25 g kg -1 seed + PSB5 kg ha -1 )}, T 11 {100% RDF through organic manures (50% RDF through vermicompost+50% RDF through FYM), and T 12 {100% RDF through organic manures (50% RDF through vermicompost+50% RDF through FYM) + Bio-fertilizers (Rhizobium 25 g kg -1 seed + PSB 5 kg ha -1 )}. showed to be superior (8.00 pods and 8.22 pods) during both the years with respect to increase in number of pods per cluster. These results are in accordance with the [10,15,17] .
Results and
Results and
Number of clusters per plant:
The data depicted in Table -1 of the pooled data study for two years, combined effect of INM treatments showed significance influence on number of clusters per plant. However treatment T 12 was recorded maximum number of clusters per plant (26.12) and proved significant trustworthy over rest of the treatment which was followed by T 11 , T 9 , T 10 , T 4 , T 3 , T 8 , T 7 , T 6 , T 5, and T 2 respectively. While minimum number of clusters per plant was counted under treatment T 1 . Application of proper integration of 100% RDF through organic manures {(50% RDF through vermicompost, and 50% RDF through FYM) + bio-fertilizers (Rhizobium 25 g kg -1 seed treatment + PSB 5 kg ha -1 soil application)}, these maximum number of clusters per plant were obtained which was also significantly higher than other treatment including T 1 .
Similar results were also quoted by [10,[15][16][17] . Similar results were also reported by [15] .

Number of marketable clusters plot
Fresh weight of clusters: An examination of Table-1
showed pooled data that Statistically highest fresh weight of cluster (g) of cluster bean were noted in treatment T 12 (31.88, 32.11 and 31.99) during the first year, second and pool data where the cluster bean was grown under the field condition and lowest fresh weight of cluster (g) were observed in treatment T 1 (24.99, 25.03, and 25.01) during the both years and pool data. The probable reason for gaining higher fresh weight of cluster (g) might be due to integration of 100% RDF through organic fertilizers, (50% RDF through vermicompost, and 50% RDF through FYM) and bio-fertilizers (Rhizobium 25 g kg -1 seed + PSB 5 kg ha - 1 ) was most effective treatment which might have made favourable condition for the plant growth. This result was conformity with [17] .
Fresh weight of pod per cluster: Data depicted in Table-
1 showed pooled data that the maximum fresh weight of pod per cluster (g) (30.09) was recorded under treatment T 12 , followed by T 11 (28.99), While the minimum fresh weight of pod per cluster (g) was treatment T 1 (20.96), followed by T 2 (22.11). it was found that application of 100% RDF through organic manures (50% RDF through vermicompost, and 50% RDF through FYM) and biofertilizers (Rhizobium 25 g kg -1 seed treatment + PSB 5 kg ha -1 soil application) (T 12 ), highest fresh weight of pod per cluster (g) (29.81g and 30.36 g) yielded maximum fresh weight of pods per cluster which was also significantly higher than the other rest treatments. Similar results were also delineated by [14,15] .
Yield of pods per plant:
The pooled data exhibited the maximum yield (g) of pods per plant (808.50) was recorded in treatment T 12 , followed by treatments T 11, T 10, T 9, T 8, T 7, T 6, and T 5 respectively . While the minimum yield (g) of pods per plant was noted T 1 (345.84), followed by T 2 (412.26) (Table -1). it was observed that application of 100% RDF through organic manures (50% RDF through vermicompost, and 50% RDF through FYM) and biofertilizers (Rhizobium 25 g kg -1 seed treatment + PSB 5 kg ha -1 soil application) (T 12 ), Yield of pods per plant (g) (810.81g and 806.20 g) yielded the maximum yield which was also significantly higher than other lower treatments. Similar results were also delineated by [8,11,15,16,17] .
Length of raceme:
The pooled data showed that the significally maximum length of raceme (12.54 cm) was recorded in T 12 , followed by T 11 (12.19). While the minimum length of raceme (cm) was noted in treatment T 1 (9.53), followed by T 2 (9.77). Further examination of the data showed that treatments T 2 , T 3 and T 4 (9.77, 11.40 and 11.44) significantly improved length of raceme (cm) over treatment T 1 (9.33) (Table -2). Increased in length of raceme (cm) may be associated with the production of growth promoting substances, FYM, vermicompost and biofertilizers, which might have led to helped in general way to activate the physiological processes in the plant system. Similar results were also reported by [17] .
Length of pod:
The pooled data study for two year, The highest length of pod during both years (10.46) was observed in treatment T 12 {100% RDF through organic manures (50% RDF through vermicompost, and 50% RDF through FYM) and bio-fertilizers (Rhizobium 25 g kg -1 seed treatment + PSB 5 kg ha -1 soil application)}, while the minimum length of pod (cm) (6.46) during both the years was recording under treatment T 1 (RDF N: P: K kg ha -1 25:60:60). It could be revealed that integration of 50% RDF through vermicompost, and 50% RDF through FYM) and bio-fertilizers (Rhizobium 25 g kg -1 seed treatment + PSB 5 kg ha -1 soil application) might have accelerated the rate of metabolic activities in the plant system that might have resulting in increasing length of pod. These results were in conformity with the finding of [4,5,7,13,14,16,17] .
Diameter of pod:
The pooled data confirmed that the significantly maximum diameter of pod (cm) (1.11) was recorded in T 12 , followed by treatments T 11 , T 10 T 9, T 8 , T 7, T 6, and T 5 respectively. However the minimum diameter of pod (cm) was seen under T 1 (0.71) followed by T 2 (0.81). The diameter of pod (cm) was found to be maximum under the treatment T 12 {100% RDF through organic fertilizers, 50% RDF through vermicompost, and 50% RDF through FYM) and bio-fertilizers (Rhizobium 25 g kg -1 seed + PSB 5 kg ha -1 )} during the both years 2021 and 2022 respectively, while minimum diameter of pod (cm) was observed that (0.71 cm and 0.72 cm) under the treatment T 1 during the both years. Similar results quoted by [4,13,14,17] .
Fresh weight of pod:
The pooled data exhibited the maximum fresh weight of pod (g) (7.03) was recorded under the treatment T 12 [100% RDF through organic manures (50% RDF through vermicompost+50% RDF through FYM) + Bio-fertilizers (Rhizobium 25 g kg -1 seed + PSB 5 kg ha -1 )], followed by treatment T 11 (6.39) While, lowest (3.34 g and 3.28 g) was recorded under RDF N: P: K kg ha -1 (25:60:60) (T 1 ). Similar results were also reported by [4,8,9,13,14,15,17] .
11. Yield of marketable green pods: (11053.07 kg/ha) The pooled data put on view that the maximum yield of marketable green pods (kg/ha) (11053.07) was recorded in the treatment T 12 followed by treatment T 11 (10532.01) during both years of study. However, the minimum yield of marketable green pods (kg/ha) was seen under treatment T 1 (7497.92), followed by T 2 (7960.84). The magnitude of increase in yield of green pods (kg/ha) with T 12 treatment was 47.41% than treatment T 1 . Effect of treatments T 2 , T 3, and T 4 significantly improved yield of green pods (kg/ha) better than treatment T 1. The probable reason for higher yield of green pods might be due to integration of 100% RDF through organic fertilizers, (50% RDF through vermicompost, and 50% RDF through FYM) and biofertilizers (Rhizobium 25 g kg -1 seed + PSB 5 kg ha -1 ) was effective which might have made favorable condition for the root growth and development and induced changes in root morphology. Which in turn, affected the assimilation of nutrients. Enhanced accumulation of nutrients, increased growth and yield attributes and ultimately yield of cluster bean. There is parity of results of [4,5,9,6,17] .
Benefit-cost ratio:
The mean value of data showed that the maximum benefit cost-ratio (3.21) was calculated under the treatment T 12 followed by treatment T 11 (3.20), while the minimum benefit-cost ratio was recorded under the treatment T 10 (1.02), followed by treatment T 4 (1.03). The mean data of two years revealed that 100% RDF through organic manures 50% RDF through vermicompost, and 50% RDF through FYM + Bio fertilizers Rhizobium 25 g kg -1 seed + PSB 5 kg ha -1 significantly increased the benefit-cost ratio of cluster bean c.v. Pusa Novbahar, whereas application of bio-fertilizers with RDF (T 2 ) could not brought out any remarkable effect on the benefit cost ratio.
Except for this, all other INM treatment combinations also showed beneficial effects over treatment T 1 {RDF [NPK 30:60:60)} alone. Similar results were also reported by [10,12] .
Conclusion
It is concluded that The inorganic and organic fertilizers or manures along with bio-fertilizers alone or in combination were found to have significant effect on growth characters as compared to RDF treatment. It is evident from Table 1 and table 2 that among all the twelve treatments, T 12 {100% RDF through organic manures (50% RDF through vermicompost+50% RDF through FYM) + Bio-fertilizers (Rhizobium 25 g kg -1 seed + PSB 5 kg ha -1 )}. recorded the highest Number of pods per cluster (8.11), Number of clusters per plant (26.12), Number of marketable clusters plot -1 (435.66), Fresh weight of clusters (31.99 g) Fresh weight of pod per cluster (30.09 g), Yield of pods per plant (808.50g), Length of raceme (12.54 cm), Length of pod (10.46 cm), Diameter of pod (1.11 cm), Fresh weight of pod (7.03g), Yield of marketable green pods (11053.07 kg/ha), Benefit-cost ratio 3.21. The reason might be due to higher availability of nutrients as a result of integration of organic and inorganic sources with bio-fertilizers Pusa Navbahar Varity cluster bean. hence above treatment recommended to the farmers like agro climatic zone south-western semi arid region U.P.
