“…Increase in average weight of fruit, due to application of organic manures and biofertilizers, might be associated with favourable action of the microorganisms and positive effect of the manures which might have enhanced the micronutrient availability in the soil. The similar findings were reported by Bairwa et al [14], Mohan et al [15], Thriveni et al [16], Dash et al [17], Eifediyi and Remison [18] and Sahu et al [19].…”

Biofertilizers are microbial inoculation of plant growth-promoting rhizobacteria (PGPRs) which act as important components of integrated nutrient management (INM) and have the ability to reduce the nutritional dependence of plants over chemical fertilizers. A field experiment was conducted to investigate the response of farmyard manure (FYM) and biofertilizers on the productivity and profitability of cucumber (Cucumis sativus L.) cv. Pant Kheera-1. The application of FYM was done by thoroughly mixing it in the soil one week prior to sowing and basal dose of vermicompost was incorporated in soil one week before sowing and treated with three biofertilizers such as Azotobacter, PSB and KSB as per the requirement of the treatment. The results indicated that farmyard manure and biofertilizers like Azotobacter and PSB with different RDF doses of fertilizers significantly influenced the different growth and yield attributes of cucumber. Application of 75% RDF + FYM + Azotobacter + PSB + KSB recorded significantly higher fruit setting percent (93.26%) and fruit yield. It was recorded that the maximum gross returns and net returns was recorded in with the application of 75% RDF + FYM + Azotobacter + PSB + KSB with B:C ratio of 4.7 while maximum B:C ratio (4.9) was recorded with a application of 100% RDF. Thus, integration of organic manure and biofertilizers with 75% of RDF improved the production potential of cucumber and enhanced the net return.

“…Combined application of vermicompost and Azotobacter could have caused additive effect in terms of facilitating better soil condition like improved soil fertility and nitrogen fixation which ultimately enhanced the activities of other microbes and release of other growth stimulator as well (Chaudhary et al 2015). The results are in line with the findings of Ahmad et al (2019) in bottle gourd, Sahu et al (2020), Prabhu et al (2006), Singh et al (2020) in cucumber, Raturi et al (2019) in capsicum, Singh et al (2015) and Kumar et al (2015) in strawberry, Malo et al (2020) in cucumber, Mishra et al (2021) in cabbage and Smriti et al (2018) in okra.…”

The present investigation was conducted during 2022 at DAV University, Jalandhar, to find out the effect of organic manure and bio-fertilizer on growth and yield of summer squash (Cucurbita pepo L.). The experiment consisted of twelve treatments viz. T1 (FYM @ 20 t/ha), T2 (vermicompost @ 5 t/ha), T3 (Neem cake @ 2.5 t/ha), T4 (Azotobacter @ 4 kg/ha), T5 (Azotobacter @ 2 kg/ha + FYM @ 10 t/ha), T6 (Azotobacter @ 2 kg/ha + vermicompost @2.5 t/ha), T7 (Azotobacter @ 2 kg/ha + neem cake @1.25 t/ha), T8 (PSB @ 4 kg/ha), T9 (PSB @ 4 kg/ha + FYM @ 20 t/ha), T10 (PSB @ 4 kg/ha + vermicompost @ 5 t/ha), T11 (PSB @ 4 kg/ha + Neem cake @ 2.5 t/ha), T12 (Control : RDF 60:125:25 kg NPK) and one variety (Green ball) and laid in RBD with three replications. Observations were recorded on growth parameters like plant height, number of days to male flower appearance, number of days to female flower appearance, number of days to fruit set, number of days to fruit harvest, sex ratio, number of branches, number of fruits per plant per picking, average fruit weight (g), yield parameter like marketable yield (q/ha) and quality parameter like TSS. It was observed that plants which were treated with (T6) Azotobacter @ 2 kg/ha + vermicompost @ 2.5 t/ha resulted better in most of the growth, yield and quality parameters.

“…Utilizing vermicompost not only improved soil physical properties but also fostered the development of a robust root system, resulting in enhanced nutrient and water absorption. These factors ultimately contributed to accelerated plant growth and earlier onset of flowering and fruiting [ 54 ]. The findings resonated with the results reported by Sreenivas et al [ 55 ], and Kameswari et al [ 56 ] in their studies on ridge gourd as well as by Prashanthi et al [ 57 ] on bitter gourd.…”
