Abstract

An experiment was carried out for two consecutive years in rabi season at Maharajpur Vegetable Research Farm, JNKVV, Jabalpur. Twelve combinations of organic, inorganic and bioinoculants were laid out in Randomized Block Design with three replications. Results revealed that application of 100 kg N along with 50 kg P2O5, 50 kg K2O and 20t FYM/ha recorded highest fruit yield followed by 75 kg N plus 25 kg P2O5 and 25t FYM/ha, though the quality of fruits was better incase of latter treatment than the former. Highest fruit quality with respect to ascorbic acid and keeping quality was recorded with 30t FYM + Azospirillum+PSB. It is also noted that application of 30t FYM alongwith soil inoculation of Azospirillum and PSB culture showed maximum proliferation of bacterial and fungal population whereas highest Actinomycetes counts were found with 3t vermicompost applied in combination with Azospirillum and PSB culture as soil inoculation.
