Effect of different phosphorus levels viz. 0, 25, 50 and 75 kg ha-1 on the chemico-qualitative parameters of three lentil cultivars (Masoor-local, Masoor-85 and Masoor-93) were studied under field conditions on a sandy- clay loam soil for two years. The results evinced that seed protein concentration was significantly higher (25.36%) in Masoor-93 than Masoor-85 (23.24%) and Masoor- local (23.07%) where as seed P, K, Ca, Mg, Phytic acid contents and cooking quality were almost similar in all the cultivars. By contrast, phosphorus application at the rate of 50 kg ha' significantly improved the cooking quality, seed phosphorus and phytic acid content over check.
