Other claims from this paper (8)
- Intervention effect Biofertilizers significantly improved garlic height, cloves per bulb, bulb weight, bulb yield and benefit cost ratio.
- Intervention effect Azotobacter plus PSB increased bulb yield by 20.44% relative to uninoculated controls.
- Intervention effect PSB increased bulb yield by 15.67%.
- Intervention effect Azotobacter increased bulb yield by 10.43%.
- Observation The combined inoculants and increasing NPK produced a linear increase in bulb yield and benefit cost ratio.
- Observation The highest yield was 188 q/ha with 100% NPK and both inoculants.
- Observation 75% NPK with both inoculants gave 187 q/ha, comparable to 100% NPK.
- Observation The 75% NPK inoculant combination saved 25% NPK and maximized benefit cost ratio at 4.05.
