To study the influence of rhizobium inoculation on growth and yield of groundnut (Arachis hypogaea) cultivars, an experiment was conducted at Kurram Agency, Pakistan during 2007. The rhizobium inoculation significantly enhanced the growth and yield parameters of groundnut cultivars. However, the maximum plant height (88.43 cm), number of shoots (19.9 per plant), number of leaves (173.27 per plant), number of pods (79.8 per plant), number of nodules (156.27 per plant), yield (252.66 g per plant) and production (1856 kg per ha) was observed in synthetic rhizobium inoculated seeds. The Chakori cultivar of groundnut showed best result i.e. maximum plant height (80.43 cm), number of shoots (18.9 per plant), number of leaves (196.1 per plant), number of pods (85.3 per plant), number of nodules (141.1 per plant), yield (249.8g per plant) and production (2206 kg per ha). All the parameters of growth and yield showing best result for synthetic rhizobium inoculation of seeds, while among the cultivars Chakori is best for cultivation.
