Type: article
Abstract: The present investigation entitled effect of organic manures and biofertilizers in ridge gourd was carried out during Kharif, 2021 and summer, 2022 at PG block, College of Horticulture, Rajendranagar, SKLTSHU, Hyderabad. The experiment was carried out with 20 treatments in randomized block design with 3 replications. The results reported that the T17 (recommended dose of fertilizers (RDF)-100:100:50 nitrogen (N), phosphorus (P) and potassium (K) (NPK) kg/ha + arka microbial consortium (AMC)) recorded highest in growth parameters like vine length, vine diameter, number of leaves per vine, leaf area, leaf area index, chlorophyll content and flowering parameters like days to first male flower, days to first female flower, days to 50 % flowering, sex ratio and yield parameters like days to first fruit harvest, days to last fruit harvest, fruit length, fruit width, average fruit weight, fruit yield per plot, fruit yield per hectare compared to other treatments.
