Effect of Organic Manures and Bio-fertilizers on Growth and Yield of Baby Corn

A field experiment was conducted during zaid 2022 at Crop Research Farm, Department of Agronomy, SHUATS, Prayagraj (U.P) to determine the “Effect of Organic manures and Bio-fertilizers on growth and yield of baby corn”. There were nine treatments each replicated thrice and the experiment was laid out in Randomized Block Design. The experiment involves the organic manures like Farm Yard Manure (FYM)- 20t/ha, Poultry Manure- 4t/ha, Vermicompost- 4t/ha along with the combination of biofertilizers such as, Azotobactor (20g) and Azospirillum (20g). The results revealed that, significant and higher plant height (138.7 cm), plant dry weight (55.49 g), maximum number of cobs/plant (1.93), cob length (19.1 cm), cob weight (52.54 g), stover yield (22.05 t/ha) and harvest index (29.15%) were recorded with poultry manure (4t/ha) + Azotobactor (20g) + Azospirillum (20g).
