A Field experiment was conducted at the instructional farm of IGKV Raipur during kharif season of 2008 to study the effect of phosphorus levels (40, 60, 80 kg P2O5ha1) on the fodder and seed yields of cowpea varieties (UPC-9202, UPC-4200, UPC-626, UPC-628, UPC-629 and Bundel lobia-1) was studied variety UPC-626 recorded 306.66 q/ha higher yields of green fodder, 42.66 q/ha dry fodder yields. The green fodder, dry matter yield attributes increased with increase in phosphorus levels upto 80 kg/ha.
