Abstract

An experiment on gherkin ( Cucumis anguria L.) was carried out at farmer’s field, Fattepur village of Haveri District Karnataka during 2014 to study the impact of bio fertilizers along with combination of different level of N, P and K on nutrient uptake in gherkin. The results of the experiment data revealed that the application of 100% NPK+ Azotobacter chroococcum + Trichoderma viridae + Glomus fasciculatum , recorded highest vine length (143.33cm), more number of leaves per plant (47.23), more number of branches per plant (2.72), lowest days to flowering (28.00) and highest fruit yield (12.70 t/ha). Significantly highest nutrient uptake (194.60 N, 55P and 237 K kg\ha) was recorded with the same treatment.
