Abstract
Abstract: A research investigation entitled “Effect of organically extracted biostimulants on growth, dry matter yield and nutrient uptake by banana plantlets during primary hardening” was conducted during June-July 2021 at, Biotechnology research unit, Jain Irrigation System ltd. Jalgaon, Maharashtra. The experiment was laid out in randomized block design with nine treatments replicated thrice in order to study the effect of biostimulants extracted from various organics on the growth parameters, nutrients content of banana plantlets and available nutrient status in growth media primary hardened banana. The biostimulants were applied with the method of foliar spraying and drenching. The biostimulant (humic acid) were extracted from various organics viz, NPS-compost, vermicompost, FYM and biogas slurry. The result of the present investigation indicated that biostimulants extracted from NPS-compost recorded higher total N, total P, and total S. Compare with other organics narrow C:N ratio was recorded in biostimulants extracted from NPS-compost followed by vermicompost indicating more polymerization of these composts. The higher E4/E6 ratio (colour ratio) was noted in biostimulants extracted from vermicompost (4.81) followed by FYM (4.22). The higher carboxylic and total acidity was recorded in the biostimulants extracted from vermicompost and the higher phenolic group was observed in the biostimulant extracted from FYM. The significant improvement in growth parameters of root and shoots, conc. of N and K, uptake of N, P and K and available N, P and K in the growth media was recorded with the foliar spray of biostimulant extracted from vermicompost. Whereas application of drenching of biostimulant extracted from vermicompost resulted in maximum enhancement in the growth parameters of root and content of Nitrogen in banana plantlet. The drenching of biostimulant extracted from FYM found beneficial in enhancement of growth parameters of shoot, concentration of K, and uptake of N and K. However significantly higher available N, P and K concentration and its uptake was observed with drenching of biostimulants extracted from NPS compost. In view of the above, foliar spray of biostimulant extracted from vermicompost to banana plantlet during primary hardening was found superior in enhancement of growth parameters, nutrient concentration and uptake and improvement in available N, P and K status in soil.
