ABSTRACT
The experiment entitled “Impact of integrated nutrient management on growth, yield and shelf life of Tomato (Solanum lycopersicum) cv. Pusa Ruby” was conducted during Rabi season of the year 2020-2021 on experimental farm of Department of Horticulture, AKS University, Satna (M.P.). The experiment was laid out in a randomized block design with three replicated 13 treatments viz., T1: Control, T2: Pseudomonas (50%) + NPK (50%), T3: Azotobacter (50%) + NPK (50%), T4: Azospirillium (50%) + NPK (50%), T5: Pseudomonas (25%) + Azotobactor (25%) + NPK(50%), T6: Pseudomonas (25%) + Azospirillium (25%) +NPK(50%), T7: Azotobator (25%) + Azospirillium (25%) + NPK(50%), T8: Pseudomonas (50%) + Azosirillium (25%) + NPK (50%), T9: Pseudomonas (50%) + Azotobactor (25%) + NPK (50%), T10: Azotobactor (50%) + Azospirillium (25%) + NPK (50%), T11: Azotobactor (50%) + Pseudomonas (25%) + NPK (50%), T12: Azospirillium (50%) + Azotobactor (25%) + NPK (50%), T13: Azospirillium (50%) + Pseudomonas (25%) + NPK (50%). The results reveal that increase in Composts level had significant response on vegetative growth yield and shelf life of Tomato. The treatment the T13-Azospirillium (50%) + Pseudomonas (25%) + NPK (50%) was found superior in growth yield with quality corrector. In this investigation the treatment T13-Azospirillium (50%) + Pseudomonas (25%) + NPK (50%) was found suitable for cultivation in winter season for better yield (29.76 t/ha) and maximum shelf life (9.93 days).
Keywords:Tomato, NPK, Pseudomonas, Azotobacter, Azospirillium.
