An experiment was conducted at Horticultural Research Station, Mondouri, West Bengal during rabi season of 1997-98 and 1998-99 to study the effect of nitrogen (fiz. 30, 40 and 50 kg/ha) and phosphorus fertilization viz. 40, 60 kg/ha) with cutting treatments (0, 1 and 2 cuttings) on green and seed yield of fenugreek cv. Pusa Early Bunching. Green and seed yield and 1000 seed weight were significantly influenced by different levels of nitrogen phosphorus and number of cuttings. Green yield was maximum at 50 kg N/ha. The highest seed yield and 1000 seed weight were obtained with 50kg N/ha. The maximum green, seed yield and 1000 seed weight were obtained with 60 kg P/ha. Green yield was highest with two cuttings while seed yield and 1000 seed weight were maximum with no cutting.
