Abstract:

The chemical fertilisers when applied to soil more than the recommended, it not only affects the yield of flowers but also affects on deterioration of soil health. As an alternative to this, the low cost bio-fertilisers are one of the solutions which will help the farmers to reduce the cost of cultivation. This need to experimented. In view of this, the study was conducted to find out the influence of Vermicompost in combination with Microbial Consortium on reproductive parameters of Chrysanthemum (Dendranthema grandiflora L.) cv. Marigold. The work was carried out during Kharif 2018-19 consist of 10 Treatments and 3 Replications. The findings of the study revealed that Chrysanthemum supplied with Vermicompost + 50 per cent RDF + AMC i.e., treatment 9 recorded significantly higher in numbers and weight of flowers, which proportionately increased the flower yield when compared to the remaining treatments observed.


Keywords: Microbial consortia, Vermicompost, Recommended dose of fertilizer, Number of flowers, Weight of the flowers.
