Abstract:

Vermicompost is an organic fertilizer which converts waste to wealth in a safe and healthy way as it is produced by biopotential of earthworm. It contains plant growth hormones, enzymes, microbial population, and free of harmful pathogens. Application of such a microbiologically active organic substrate may have important effects on the microbial properties of the media. A study was conducted to find out the effect of organic manures in combination with microbial bio inoculants on the growth, plant height, wet weight, dry weight, and yield of coriander. The experiment was carried out as in open field with seven treatments at National Institute of Plant Health Management, Rajendranagar, Hyderabad in December, 2019. The analysis of the variance results revealed that the effect of the type of treatments on fresh weight, number of leaves, root length, fresh weight, dry weight, chlorophyll content and biomass yield showed significant effect when compared to control.  The results also showed that the interaction of vermicompost and bio inoculants were significantly enhanced the morphological character of the coriander crop. Therefore, theapplication of bio inoculants with any of the organic manure to be a potential source of plant nutrients which contributes the growth of coriander.
