A study was made on the application of different levels of FYM, NPK along with biofertilizers on Kinnow in order to check its effect on flowering, fruiting and fruit yield. The present study was carried out during February 2019 to December 2019 in Central horticulture research farm of Department of Horticulture, SHUATS, Prayagraj. The study was conducted in Randomized Block Design with 11 treatments replicated thrice. The treatments were T0 Control (500: 250: 500 g N,P,K / tree/ year) ,T1 (70% NPK / tree + 27kg FYM / tree), T2 (70% NPK/ tree + 27kg FYM / tree + Azotobacter 10g/ tree) , T3 (70% NPK / tree +27kg FYM / tree + Azospirillum 10g/ tree), T4 (70% NPK / tree +27kg FYM / tree + PSB 10g/tree), T5 (70% NPK / tree +27kg FYM / tree + Azotobacter 10g/ tree + Azospirillum 10g/ tree + PSB 10g/ tree), T6 (60% NPK/ tree + 30kg FYM / tree), T7 (60% NPK /tree + 30kg FYM/ tree + Azotobacter 15g/ tree), T8 (60% NPK /tree + 30kg FYM/ tree + Azospirillum 15g/ tree), T9 (60% NPK /tree + 30kg FYM/ tree + PSB 30g/ tree), T10 (60% NPK /tree + 30kg FYM/ tree + Azotobacter 15g/ tree + Azospirillium 15g/ tree + PSB 15g/ tree). Out of the above treatments, plants which were supplemented according to treatment T5 (70% NPK / tree +27kg FYM / tree + Azotobacter 10g/ tree + Azospirillum 10g/ tree + PSB 10g/ tree) showed the superior result in terms of plant height, plant spread, no. of flowers, average fruit weight, fruit yield per plant, weight of pulp, weight of peel, pulp to peel ratio, T.S.S. and Titratable Acidity.
