Abstract

An investigation was carried out to study the combined effect of PSB, Trichoderma and FYM with 100% recommended dose of NPK on plant growth and bulb yield of garlic under sodic wasteland condition. Significantly higher values of growth and yield parameters, i.e. plant height (60.7 cm), leaf length (22.43 cm), root length (7.84 cm), number of leaves per plant (9.2), bulb weight (52.43 g), number of cloves per bulb (37.66), dry weight of whole plant (53.24 g) and bulb yield (60.86 q ha-1) was obtained with the application of 100% recommended dose of NPK supplemented with the application of FYM and clove (seed) treatment with Trichoderma and PSB.
