| Abstract: | Key findings • Increasing soil arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) levels increased the yield of chickpea by 13%. • Sowing chickpea with starter fertiliser containing P increased yield by 14%. • Increasing soil AMF levels can increase yield to levels comparable to those obtained when applying fertiliser. • The application of starter fertiliser plus AMF inoculation did not have a cumulative yield effect. |
