Field experiment was carried out to evaluate the effect of different phosphorus levels on growth attributes of mungbean in custard apple based agri-horti system. In this experiment mungbean imposed in factorial randomized block design having three different levels of phosphorus (34, 46 and 58 kg P2O5/ha) and three varieties (HUM-12 Kavita and Samrat). The treatments were replicated thrice. The result showed that higher plant height, plant spread, maximum number of leaf and branches per plant, maximum dry weight were recorded with the application of 58 kg/ha phosphorous. Amongst the varieties HUM-12 recorded highest stem, leaf root and total dry matter/ plant. Result of the experiment revealed that the highest grain yield (919 kg/ ha) was obtained with 58 kg P2O5/ha and amongst the three tested varieties of mungbean at par differences found in custard apple based agri-horti system.
