A field experiment was carried out at Agricultural Research Farm of ICAR RC for NEH Region, Jharnapani in summer seasons of 2010 and 2011 to assess the effect of sowing time, seed rates and integrated nutrition on yield attributes, yield, nutrient uptake, quality and soil health of mungbean. Results revealed that yield attributes, yield, N, P and K uptake of mungbean was recorded significantly higher in 5th April than April 15th sown crop. However, yield attributes, yield, N, P and K uptake of mungbean was noted markedly higher with seed rate of 35 kg/ha, which was significantly superior to 20, 25 and 30 kg/ha. Similarly, application of 50% RDF+50% RDN+PSB produced significantly higher yield attributes, yield, N, P, K uptake by mungbean.
