Abstract

A field experiment on “Effect of biofertilizers and different sources of organic manures on quality parameters and economics of amaranth (Amaranthus spp.) cv. Arka Suguna” was carried out during late Kharif season 2016 at College of Horticulture, Sardarkrushinagar Dantiwada Agricultural University, Jagudan (Gujarat). Total fifteen treatment combinations comprising of biofertilizers viz. (Azotobactor, PSB, Azotobactor + PSB) and Organic manure viz. FYM, Vermicompost, Caster Cake, Poultry Manure, Neem Cake were tried in factorial randomized block design with four replications. The results revealed that among different biofertilizers, chlorophyll a, chlorophyll b, total chlorophyll, carotenoid content, protein Content and iron content were recorded with treatment b3 (Azotobactor + PSB). In case of different sources of organic manures, chlorophyll a, chlorophyll b, total chlorophyll, carotenoid content, protein content and iron content were observed with treatment f2 (Vermicompost)
