A pot experiment was conducted to asses the effect of phosphorus management and biofertilizer inmungbean irrigated with sodic water during 2013. Three levels each of sodic water (control, 3.0 and6.0 mmol/L), biofertilizer (control, PSB and PSB + VAM) and phosphorus (control, 15 and 30 mg/kg of soil), were tested in factorial randomized block design with three replications. The resultsindicated that application of irrigation water having RSC 1.0 mmol/L, biofertilizer viz. PSB + VAMand phosphorus 30 mg/kg of soil recorded the maximum and significantly higher total and availablephosphorus, dehydrogenase enzyme activity, alkaline phosphate activity, total and effective nodules,nodule index, number of pods per plant, grain yield, straw yield and biological yield of mungbeanover rest of the treatments. A application of irrigation water having RSC 6.0 mmol/L recordedsignificantly higher pH, EC and ESP as compared to other treatments. However, pH, EC and ESPdid not show any significantly difference under different levels of phosphorus and biofertilizers.
