Abstract:

The present investigation entitled “Effect of consortium of endophytic nitrogen fixing bacteria on yield and quality of seasonal (Suru) sugarcane (Saccharum officinarum) under drip irrigation” was carried out at AICRP on Water Management, M.P.K.V., Rahuri during 2014-15. The experiment was laid out in Randomized Block Design with six treatments and four replications. There were four levels of nitrogen (100%, 50%, 25% and 0%) with P2O5, K2O, PSB, FYM and foliar application of consortium of endophytic nitrogen fixing bacteria with and without combination and set treatment of Acetobacter diazotrophicus. The experiment conducted revealed that highest number of internodes, length of internodes, higher number of millable canes (9.17), top yield (11.47 t.ha-1), cane yield (284 t.ha-1) and cane dry matter weight (79.63 t.ha-1) was recorded in the treatment 25% N + Consortium of Endophytic Bacteria foliar spray.
