Type: article
Abstract: A field experiment was conducted to assess the impact on growth, yield, quality and economics of Radish at Research farm, College of Agriculture, Indore (M.P.) during Rabi season 2022-2023 in RBD with 3 replications. For meet up the demand, 6 treatments viz. T1: Biodynamic preparation 500 (BD-500) @ 5.0g/litre, T2: Biodynamic preparation 501 (BD-501) @ 5.0 g/litre, T3: Biofertilizer Azotobactor @ 5 ml/litre, T4: BD 500 @ 5.0 g + Azotobactor @ 5 ml/litre, T5: BD 501 @ 5.0 g + Azotobactor @ 5 ml/litre, T6: BD 500 @ 5.0 g + BD 501 @ 5.0 g + Azotobactor @ 5 ml/litre, and T0: Control were used The results revealed that combination of BD 500 @ 5.0 g + BD 501 @ 5.0 g + Azotobactor @ 5 ml/litre was the best among all the treatments for most of the growth and yield parameters under study and gave highest net return and B: C ratio. Thus, it can be concluded that the biofertlizer (Azotobacter) and biodynamic approach are an advantageous source of nutrients for Radish.
