Abstract:
The Present experiment entitled ''Effect of biofertilizer and organic manures on growth and yield of Radish (Raphanus sativus L.) Var Kashi Shweta" carried out in the Department of Horticulture, Kulbhaskar Ashram P.G. College Allahabad, in Rabi season during 2017-2018. The present investigation was comprised of 8 treatments inclding organic fertilizers and NPK soluble biofertilizer. The experiment was conducted in Randomized Block Design (R.B.D.) with three replications to observe the growth and yield parameters of radish. On the basis of present experiments it is concluded that the radish variety Kashi Sweta responded well with biofertilizer and organic manures in Allahabad Zone, good growth and yield parameters. The application of FYM @10t/ha (T1) was found superior as compared to other treatments and recorded maximum growth (viz. plant height, number of leaves plant-1, leaf area plant-1) and yield parameters (viz. root length, root diameter, root weight with top, root weight without top total yield per hectare, total yield per plot).
