Two different strains of Rhizobium alongwith nitrogen in reduced levels in bengalgram crop were evaluated. Among these two isolates, GR-9 performed significantly better to nodulation (42.5/plant), dry weight of nodules (121.1 mg/plant), dry weight of plant (4.18 g/plant) whereas the grain Yield (8.1 q/ha) were at par with other strain Le. GR4 (8.5 q/ha). In case of combination with different levels of recommended dose of nitrogen produced maximUm grain Yield (10.8 q/ha). The isolate GR-4 was found to be more efficient strain of Rhizobium for application for bengalgram in northern dry zone of Karnataka
