Abstract:
A field experiment entitled “Effect of Biofertilizers and Fertilizers on Growth Parameters, Yield Parameters and Yield in Black Gram (Vigna mungo L.)” was conducted during rabi, 2021 at Wetland farm, S.V. Agricultural College, ANGRAU, Tirupati, Andhra Pradesh. The experiment was laid out in randomized block design with ten treatments and three replications. Combined application of biofertilizers along with inorganic fertilizers significantly influenced the growth and yield black gram crop. The maximum number of growth parameters and yield attributes viz., dry matter production, plant height, number of branches plant^-1, number of nodules plant^-1, number of pods plant^-1 and number of seeds pod^-1 were numerically highest with application of 100% RDF + Soil application of liquid Rhizobium + liquid PSB + liquid KSB (T₈) and test weight of seed was recorded non-significant. Seed yield and straw yield were recorded significantly highest under 100% RDF + Soil application of liquid Rhizobium + liquid PSB + liquid KSB (T₈) followed by 75% RDF + Soil application of liquid Rhizobium + liquid PSB + liquid KSB (T₇).
