Use of inorganic fertilizer has become essential part of the crop production and a balance form of fertilizer use is always a prerequisite to obtain the higher yield. However, these fertilizers are costly and also pollute the environment through the process of denitrification and volatilization and soil water through leaching wherein only 50 percent of available nitrogen is being used and rest 50 percent goes as waste and is an environmental hazzard. Hence, a strategy for integrated nutrient supply is evolved by using judicious combination of chemical fertilizer, organic manure and biofertilizers (Panwar, et al 2001). Therefore a combine effect of chemical fertilizer along with biofertilizer on percentage increase in yield of fodder crop maize (cv. African Tall) and saving of nitrogenous fertilizer due to the use of biofertilizer was studied under present investigation.
