Abstract

Early and highest seed germination in capsicum (cultivar Bharat, F1 hybrid) was observed consistently for two years (2005–06) with the treatments, where seeds were inoculated with Azotobactor and Azospirillum in combination with Microphos. Maximum fruit yield with high Vitamin ‘C’ content were produced with the application of recommended dose of NPK. However, they were at par with the treatments having inoculated capsicum seedlings with Azospirillum and Azotobactor. Significantly increase in fruit yield and number of fruits per plot was observed in black polyethylene treatment. The control (recommended NPK) and all bio-fertilizer treatments with black polythene mulch showed increase in fruit yield and number of fruits per plot.
