A field experiment was carried out during kharif, 2018 on sandy clay loam soils of dryland farm of S. V. Agricultural College, Tirupati, Acharya, N. G. Ranga Agricultural University. The experiment was laidout in random-ized block design with ten phosphorus management practices and replicated thrice. Dry matter production and yield was significantly influenced by the different phosphorus management practices. Application of 100 per cent recom-mended dose of phosphorus along with Arbuscular mycorrhizae (AM) @ 12.5 kg ha-1 and Phosphate Solubilizing Bacteria (PSB) @ 5 kg ha-1 recorded significantly higher dry matter production, green cob (14033 kg ha-1) and green fodder yield (17950 kg ha-1) in sweet corn. However, 75 per cent RDP + AM @ 12.5 kg ha-1 + PSB @ 5 kg ha-1 has given a remarkable green cob (13400 kg ha-1) and green fodder yield (17210 kg ha-1).
