Cv Crimson Globe. The experiment was conducted with three sources of nutrients viz. organic, inorganic and biofertilizers combinations in randomized block design with eight treatments and three replications. Among the treatments, T3 treatment 75 % RDNPK + FYM (6 t ha-1) +VC (1.5 t ha-1) + Azatobactor (10 kg ha-1) + PSB (10 kg ha-1) recorded the highest ascorbic acid content (3.4 mg 100g-1), betanine content (1.92 mg 100g-1), total soluble solids (9.170 brix), highest gross returns (Rs..2,29,920), net returns (Rs..1,83835) and best benefit cost ratio (3.9:1).
