The present experiment entitled “Response of biostimulants and biofertilizers on growth yield and quality of chrysanthemum cv. Ratlam Selection” was carried out at Jamuvadi Farm, Department of Horticulture, College of Agriculture, Junagadh Agricultural University, Junagadh, during October 2017 to February 2019. The experiment was laid out in Randomized Block Design with Factorial concept (FRBD) consisting two factors with three replications. The treatment comprised with five biostimulants and three treatments of biofertilizers. The results indicated that the foliar application of humic acid @ 0.2 % at 60, 90 & 120 DAT with soil drenching of Azotobacter @ 3 l/ha + PSB @ 3 l/ha + KSB @ 3 l/ha after transplanting in addition to recommended dose of fertilizers (120:60:60 kg/ha NPK) produced better yield characters viz., number of flowers per plant, plot, flower yield per plant, per plot, per hectare as well as quality characters viz., vase life of cut flowers, shelf life of loose flowers, in situ longevity of flowers, flower diameter, number of ray florets per flower in chrysanthemum cv. Ratlam Selection.
