Tehlan, S.K.Chaudhary, Rajesh2016-11-102016-11-102010http://krishikosh.egranth.ac.in/handle/1/84910The field experiment entitled “Effects of biofertilizers and organic manures on seed yield and quality of fenugreek” was conducted at Research Farms, Department of Vegetable Science and laboratories of Department of Seed Science and Technology, CCS Haryana Agricultural University, Hisar during rabi season of 2008-09. The results revealed that application of biofertilizers, organic manures and their combinations significantly influenced the growth, yield and quality parameters of fenugreek except days taken to 50 percent flowering. Seed inoculation with Rhizobium alone or in combination with PSB statistically produced non significant increase in yield over control. However, seed inoculation with Rhizobium along with application of different organic manures was found superior over PSB in term of growth, yield and quality parameters of fenugreek. Similarly, application of organic manures along with seed treatment with biofertilizers (Rhizobium or Rhizobium + PSB) perform better than sole application of organic manures. The treatment combinations viz. Rhizobium + PSB + farmyard manure, Rhizobium + farmyard manure and Rhizobium + PSB + vermicompost produced higher seed yield with better quality which were at par with recommended dose of NPK.enOrganic fertilizers, Sowing, Rhizobium, Yields, Farmyard manure, Planting, Application methods, Vermicomposting, Biofertilizers, LivestockThesis
