Abstract:

A field experiment was conducted during rabi, 2017-18 on loamy sand soil at Agronomy Instructional Farm, C. P. College of Agriculture, Sardarkrushinagar Dantiwada Agricultural University, Sardarkrushinagar to evaluate the effect of variety, chemical fertilizer and bio-fertilizers on growth and yield of cumin. Twelve treatment combinations comprising of two varieties (GC 3 and GC 4), two levels of fertilizer (100% and 50% RDF) and three levels of biofertilizers (Azotobacter + PSB, Azospirillum + PSB and NPK consortium) were laid out in randomized block design (factorial) with four replications. Significantly higher growth attributes (plant height at harvest and number of branches/plant), yield attributes (number of umbels/plant, number of umbellates/umbel, number of seeds/umbellate, test weight and harvest index) and seed and straw yield (kg ha-1) were found when cumin variety GC 4 was fertilized with 100% RDF and inoculated with Azospirillum + PSB.
