A field experiment was conducted on clay soil (Vertic ustochrepts) of Soil and Water Management Farm of Navsari Agricultural University, Navsari during rabi season of 2015-16 on “Effect of land configuration, irrigation and INM on quality, nutrient content and uptake of Indian bean (var. GNIB -21)”. In all, twelve treatment combinations consisting of two levels each of land configuration (L1: Raised bed and L2: Flatbed), irrigation (I1: 0.4 and I2: 0.6 IW/CPE ratio) and three levels of integrated nutrient management [F1= 100% RDF, F2= 75% RDF + 5t BC/ha + bio fertilizer (Rhizobium + PSB) and F3= 50% RDF + 5t BC/ha + bio fertilizer (Rhizobium + PSB)] were tried in split plot design with three replications. The results revealed that protein content as well as nutrients content in seed and stover was not influenced significantly due to main effect of land configuration, irrigation and INM as well as their interactive effects. While the protein yield in seed was affected significantly due to land configuration treatment. Significantly higher protein yield in seed and stover were recorded with raised bed configuration as compared to flat bed sowing. In case of INM treatment, only protein yield in seed was affected significantly. Here, treatment F2 and F3 remained at par with each other and both were significantly superior over treatment F1. Uptake of all the nutrients by seed as well as stover was significantly higher in raised bed configuration in comparison to control. Irrigation scheduling did not alter the nutrient uptake by seed and stover. In case of INM treatments, only uptake of nutrient by seed was influenced significantly, in all the cases treatment F2 and F3 remained at par with each other and both were performed better than treatment F1.
