A field experiment was conducted to study the effect of dual inoculation of potassium solubilizing bacteria (KSB) and phosphorus solubilizing bacteria (PSB) on nutrient content in maize crop with the comparison of 75 per cent and 100 per cent fertilizer level as absolute control. The maize seeds were treated with KSB 11, KSB 27 and PSB 98 (2). From this research results showed that there was increased in plants Nitrogen, Phosphorus and Potassium content in treatments received both KSB and PSB isolates as compare to control plants. Among all the treatments T₅treatment (KSB-11+ PSB-98 (2) + RDN (P and K at 75 per cent) was recorded maximum Nitrogen (3.07%), Phosphorus (0.91%) and Potassium (4.50%) content in maize crop. This result concluded that dual inoculation of KSB and PSB have more effective as compare to individual application to the maize crop.
