Year: 2018

Type: article

Abstract: A field experiment was conducted to study the ‘Efficacy of organic manures and bio-fertilizers on yield attributes and yield of okra var. Chameli’ during rainy season 2016-17 at Horticulture Farm, S.K.N. College of Agriculture, Jobner (Jaipur) with consisted of 16 treatments combinations viz., organic manures (Control, FYM, Poultry Manure and Vermicompost) and bio-fertilizers (Control, PSB, VAM and Azotobacter) tested in randomized block design with three replications. results shows that the application of vermicompost @ 8 t ha-1 and Azotobacter alone significantly increased the number of fruit plant-1, fruit weight (g), fruit length (cm) fruit yield plant-1 (g), fruit yield plot-1 (kg) and fruit yield hectare-1 (q) as compared to control, FYM and poultry manure. The combined application of vermicompost @ 8 t ha-1 + Azotobacter as seed inoculation proved to be most superior treatment combination in terms of fruit weight (g), fruit yield plant-1 (g), fruit yield plot-1 (kg) and fruit yield hectare-1 (q).
