An experiment was conducted during Rabi season 2018-19 at Instructional Farm, BTC College of Agriculture and Research Station, Bilaspur to to study the effect of bio-inoculant, organic manure and chemical fertilizer on growth and yield of wheat (Triticum aestivum L.). The wheat (var. CG-1013) was grown and treatments were replicated three times in randomized block design. The experiment consists of twelve treatments viz., 100% RDF (T1), 75% RDF (T2), 75% RDF + FYM @ 5 t ha -1 (T3), 75% RDF + Azotobacter (T4), 75% RDF + FYM @ 5 t ha -1 + Azotobacter (T5), 75% RDF + Azotobacter + PSB (T6), 75% RDF + FYM @ 5 t ha -1 + Azotobacter + PSB (T7), 50% RDF + FYM @ 5 t ha -1 (T8), 50% RDF + Azotobacter (T9), 50% RDF + FYM @ 5 t ha -1 + Azotobacter (T10), 50% RDF + Azotobacter + PSB (T11), 50% RDF + FYM @ 5 t ha -1 + Azotobacter + PSB (T12). The soil of the experimental field was clay in texture. The result revealed that growth parameters viz., plant population (m -2 ), plant height (cm), number of tillers (m -2 ), number of effective tillers (m -2 ) and dry matter accumulation (g plant -1 ) were recorded maximum with the application of 100% RDF (T1) which was at par with the application of 75% RDF + FYM @ 5 t ha -1 + Azotobacter + PSB (T7) and was significantly superior over all treatments at all stages of observations. The improvement in yield attributes and yield of wheat was recorded with the application of 100% RDF (T1) which was at par with the application of 75% RDF + FYM @ 5 t ha -1 + Azotobacter + PSB (T7).
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
