dc.description.abstractThe present study was conducted to know the influence of vermicompost in combination with Microbial Consortium on growth, yield and quality of Chrysanthemum (Dendranthema grandiflora L.) cv. Marigold was carried out at Precision Farming Development Centre, Department of Horticulture, Gandhi Krishi Vigyana Kendra, University of Agricultural Sciences, Bengaluru during kharif season of 2018-19 and this experiment was laid out with a design of Randomised Complete Block Design (RCBD) with 10 treatment with 3 replication combination. The treatments were imposed with combination of organic, inorganic and biofertilizers with a spacing of 45cm x 45cm between the rows and plants. The results of the experiment indicated that, treatment combination with Vermicompost + 50 per cent RDF + AMC (T9) recorded significantly highest plant height, more number of branches, plant spread and yield attributes such as flower diameter, number of flowers per plant, average flower weight, flower yield per plant and flower yield per hectare. The soil sample analysed from the combination treatment (T9) showed higher available nutrients (N, P2O5 and K2O) and their uptake by plants. The same treatment (T9) registered significantly superior quality parameters such as flower diameter and shelf life of the flower. The economic analysis clearly indicated that net returns obtained per hectare and B:C ratio (1.98) was highest in the plots imposed with Vermicompost + 50 per cent recommended dose of fertilizers + AMC (T9) and can be used for commercial chrysanthemum production with more profitable.en_US
