Effect of Different Levels of Bio-fertilizers and Plant Growth Regulators on Growth attribute and Protein content of Mungbean under Custard Apple Based Agri-Horti System

A field experiment was conducted to study the effect of different levels of bio-fertilizers and plant growth regulators (PGR's) on mungbean under custard apple based agri-horti system in a complete randomized block design with different treatment combinations viz., Harit Vardan (bio-fertilizer), Bioplantomin (liquid bio-manure), Biovita (organic product), Farm Bahar (polymorphic growth hormones) and Plantgro (multi-micronutrients) which were replicated thrice. These treatments were applied in different doses and method of application was either through soil treatment or foliar spray. The biometric observations on growth attributes were recorded at an interval of 15 d i.e.15th, 30th and 45th days after sowing and at maturity. Use of Bioplantomin (liquid bio-manure) at 3.5 l/ha as foliar spray resulted in highest plant height (55.0 cm), number of branches/plant (4.32), number of trifoliate leaf/plant (9.4) and total dry matter accumulation/plant (11.66g). Protein content (25.70%) as compared to control.
