Abstract:
The effect of organic manures and biofertilizers along with inorganic fertilizers on growth and yield of guava cv. Hisar Surkha was studied. Experimental findings revealed that different treatments significantly increased plant height and number of flowers per branch. Vermicompost and FYM were used alone and in combination with biofertilizers at three RDF (recommended dose of fertilizers) levels i.e. 50%, 75% and 100%.
Azotobacter + PSB inoculation along with 100% RDF + Vermicompost showed
maximum plant height, flowers per branch, fruit set, number of fruits, average weight of fruit and yield, however, average plant spread was not significantly affected. The treatment significantly reduced fruit drop.
