Experiment was carried out to study the effect of consortium of Azotobactor, PSB and Potash mobilizing bacteria on yield of rabi sorghum at All India Co-ordinated Sorghum Improvement Project, M.P.K.V., Rahuri. Significantly higher plant height (314.7 cm) was recorded by seed treatment with Azotobactor, PSB and KMB Consortium + 100 % RDF (T4). Seed treatment with Azotobactor, PSB and KMB Consortium + 100 % RDF (T4) recorded higher test weight (31.9 g) than T1- Absolute control and T9 (KMB + 75 % N + 100 % RDP & K). Highest grain (2137 kg ha-1), fodder (5243 kg ha-1) and biological yields (7381 kg ha-1) were recorded in seed treatment with MPKV Azotobactor, PSB and KMB consortium + 100 % RDF (T4) whereas, lowest grain, fodder and biological yields (1270 kg ha-1, 2877 kg ha-1 and 4147 kg ha-1) were recorded in control plot. Highest grain and fodder yields in seed treatment with Azotobactor, PSB and KMB Consortium + 100 % RDF (T4) which were 41.0 % and 45 % higher over absolute control. Higher availability of gross returns of Rs. 82,471 ha-1, net returns of Rs.55, 422 ha-1 with B: C ratio of 3.05 was recorded in seed treatment with Azotobactor, PSB and KMB Consortium + 100 % RDF (T4).
