ABSTRACT
A field experiment was conducted at the Department of Vegetable Science, College of Agriculture, Orissa University of Agriculture and Technology, Bhubaneswar (Odisha), during the rabi season of the year 2012-13 under Randomized Block Design with ten treatments and three replications to study the effect of inorganic fertilizers, biofertilizers and organics alongwith lime on growth and yield parameters of onion cv. N-53. The results revealed that the growth characters viz.,plant height, number of leaves per plant, leaf length, leaf width, neck length and neck thickness; yield- attributing characters such as bulb weight, polar diameter and equatorial diameter of bulb were positively influenced under treatment T9 i.e., Lime @ 0.2 LR + (Azotobacter + Azospirillum + P.S.B) @ 4 kg per ha each + Vermicompost @ 5t per ha + RDF (120:60:60 kg per ha), while no fertilizer was applied in control. Maximum bulb yield (27.13 t ha-1) was recorded in the same treatment (T9), which was due to the sum total effect of different growth and yield-attributing characters.
Key words :
Biofertilizers, Growth & yield attributes, Inorganic fertilizers, Onion, Vermicompost.
