Abstract
The experiment was conducted at the farm of Research cum Demonstration Farm, DKSCARS, Bhatapara, Indira Gandhi Krishi Vishwavidyalaya, Raipur (C.G.) during the rabi seasons of 2019-20 and 2020-21. The growth parameters like days to 50% flowering, plant height (cm), number of branches per plant, number of nodules per plant, fresh weight of nodules per plant (mg), dry weight of nodules per plant (mg), fresh plant weight per plant (g) were significantly superior in the T13 (Rhizobium (Liquid) + P.S.B. (Liquid) + 100% RDF), while remained other treatments namely T12 (Rhizobium (Culture) + P.S.B. (Culture) + 100% RDF), T14 (Rhizobium (Capsulated) + P.S.B. (Capsulated) + 100 % RDF), T2 (RDF Only (25:50:50) NPK/ha), T5 (Rhizobium (Capsule) + PK Supplied Through Fertilizer (0:50:50)), T1 (Control (no fertilizer apply)) for cut flower production and garden display under Chhattisgarh plain. The mean data revealed that among all the treatments, significant earliness in days to 50 % flowering (33.95) was noted in treatment T13 (Rhizobium (Liquid) + P.S.B. (Liquid) + 100 % RDF). The mean data at harvest, revealed that, significantly highest plant height (55.47) was noted in treatment T13 (Rhizobium (Liquid) + P.S.B. (Liquid) + 100 % RDF). The mean data at harvest revealed that, significantly highest number of branches per plant (11.12) was noted in treatment T13 (Rhizobium (Liquid) + P.S.B. (Liquid) + 100% RDF). The significant highest number of nodules per plant (28.29) was noted in treatment T13 (Rhizobium (Liquid) + P.S.B. (Liquid) + 100% RDF). The significant highest fresh weight of nodules per plant (mg) (4450.00) was noted in treatment T13 (Rhizobium (Liquid) + P.S.B. (Liquid) + 100% RDF). The significant maximum dry weight of nodules per plant (mg) (825.00) was noted in treatment T13 (Rhizobium (Liquid) + P.S.B. (Liquid) + 100 % RDF). The significant fresh plant weight per plant (g) (141.00) was noted in treatment T13 (Rhizobium (Liquid) + P.S.B. (Liquid) + 100% RDF).
