Abstract: The present experiment entitled “Economics of cut gladiolus (Gladiolus grandiflorus L.) production with application Biostimulants” was carried out at the Floricultural Research Station, Sri Konda Laxman Telangana State Horticultural University, Rajendranagar, Hyderabad during September 2017 to February 2018. The experiment was laid out in Randomized Block Design replicated thrice with eleven treatments. The results indicating that economic evaluation of different treatments of bio stimulants on gladiolus spikes, corms and cormels yield shows that highest cost of cultivation (Rs 6.30 lakh ha^-1) was recorded with the treatment of Biozyme at 4ml/L i.e T_6, highest net income (8.35 lakh Rs) and benefit cost ratio (2.34:1) were obtained when Humic acid at 4ml/L i.e T₈ applied as a presoaking and foliar spray at 30 and 45 days after corm sowing.
