carbon and available nitrogen, medium in available phosphorus and
high in potassium. Eighteen treatment combinations comprised of
six bio-organics (B0 : control, B1 : FYM @ 5 t ha-1, B2 : FYM + PSB soil
inoculation @ 4 kg ha-1, B3 : vermicompost @ 2 t ha-1, B4 :
vermicompost + PSB soil inoculation @ 4 kg ha-1, B5 : PSB @ 4 kg ha-
1) and three levels of phosphorus (0, 25 and 50 kg P2O5 ha-1) were
tried in randomized block design with factorial
