An experiment was conducted to find out the effect of different growth regulators on growth and yield of turmeric, with four treatments replicated three times. Among the different treatments evaluated for growth and yield of turmeric, the treatment G3 (NAA 20 ppm) recorded maximum (80.84 cm) plant height, number of leaves per tiller (26.32), leaf area (288.38cm2), number of tillers per clump (5.63), harvest index (88.01%), number of rhizomes per clump (31.03), diameter of rhizome clump (29.02 mm), clump size (42.37 cm2), yield per clump (295.41g), yield per plot (8.08 kg) and yield per hectare (18.08 t/ha) at 180 DAP and the treatment G1 (Cycocel 1000 ppm) recorded least (65.60 cm) plant height,, number of leaves per tiller (19.04), leaf area (190.01 cm2), number of tillers per clump (4.40), number of rhizomes per clump (23.61), diameter of rhizome clump (22.67 mm), clump size (28.79 cm2), yield per clump (214.26 g), yield per plot (4.24 kg) and yield per hectare (10.77 t/ha) but the harvest index was lowest (73.52 %) in G4 (Control) at 180 DAP.
