A field experiment was carried out during the rabi season of 2022-2023 at Instructional-cum-Research Farm, Assam Agricultural University, Jorhat to evaluate the performance of different integrated nutrient management practices on chemical properties of soil under finger millet cultivation in rainfed upland condition. The design of the experiment was randomized block design (RBD) with three replications. Individual plot size was 4 m × 3 m. Total of 9 treatments were taken under consideration. The finger millet variety used for the experiment was AAU-GSG-Marua Dhan 1. Results revealed that available nitrogen in soil after harvest was found to be significantly higher under treatment T₃ (255.1 kg ha^-1) followed by T₄ (250.9 kg ha^-1). In case of phosphorus, available P₂O₅ in soil after harvest was found to be significantly higher under treatment T₃ (28.53 kg ha^-1) followed by T₄ (27.02 kg ha^-1) and T₂ (25.16 kg ha^-1). For potassium, available K₂O in soil after harvest was found to be significantly higher in T₃ (243.1 kg ha^-1) followed by (240.6 kg ha^-1) and T₂ (238.6 kg ha^-1). The lowest values for available N, P₂O₅ and K₂O in soil after harvest were observed in the control treatment.
