Abstract: The objective was to measure productive parameters in radishes grown using organic inputs. With a randomized block design and three repetitions. The treatments: commercial cultivation (RaT0); biofertilizer, worm leachate and bocashi (RaT1); biofertilizer and Mountain Microorganisms (RaT2). The parameters bulb circumference, bulb length, root length, stem to leaf length, stem circumference, number of leaves and weight. ANOVA and Principal Component Analysis (PCA) were performed. The PCA shows that RaT1 has the greatest positive impact on the diameter and length of the bulb and the weight of radish. Biofertilizers stimulate rooting and provide plant growth-promoting bacteria (GPCV), worm leachates provide humic acids and promote better absorption of minerals, and bocashi favors the availability of minerals due to the fermentation it undergoes during its preparation.
