Field experiment was conducted during 2007-08 and 2008-09 on Typic Haplustert to study the effect of inorganic fertilizers and farm yard manure (FYM) applied in combination or alone on productivity and nutrient availability in soil grown with soybean – safflower cropping system. Results showed significantly highest grain yield of soybean (28.4 q ha-1) and safflower (16.3 q ha-1)  in the treatment receiving  150% NPK and it  was at par with 100% NPK+FYM. There was overall increase in the soil bacteria, actinomycetes and fungal population  in treatment receiving FYM  @ 10 Mg ha-1 alone and decreased in treatment receiving  150% NPK . Balanced sheet of available N, P and  K after harvest of  2nd cycle  showed maximum buildup of soil nutrients  in treatment 100% NPK + FYM @ 10 Mg ha-1 fallowed by 150% NPK.
