Abstract: A field experiment was conducted at the University Field Station to study the effect of nitrogen (N), phosphorus (P), molybdenum (Mo) and liming on the grain yield of pigeon pea (Cajanus cajan (L.) Millsp.). It was observed that Mo did not have any effect on grain yield. Generally, the grain yield of pigeon pea increased with the increasing levels of Ν, Ρ and lime, although yield increases were insignificant except when Ρ was applied at the rate of 250 kg P/ha. Interaction between Ν and Ρ was also observed.
