Abstract
Bio fertilizer are commonly called microbial inoculants which are capable of mobilizing important nutritional elements in the soil from non-usable to usable form by crop plants through their biological process. Liquid bio fertilizer is increasingly available in the market as one of the alternatives to chemical fertilizer and pesticide. The present paper deals with the effectiveness of the growth of Vigna mungo L. using liquid bio fertilizers, such as Azospirillum sp., Rhizobium sp., and Azotobacter sp., with control. Shelf life of liquid bio fertilizer was maintained. The seedlings of V.mungo were transplanted in field which were noted as Treatment (T1-T5). The seedlings of field were treated with liquid bio fertilizers. The un-inoculated plants were denoted as control. Liquid bio fertilizer was sprayed on plants at 10 days intervals. Then morphological parameters such as leaves number, height, shoot length, root length, root nodules, yield were analyzed at different time intervals (15th, 30th, 45th & 60th days) respectively. Compare to all plants the combined inoculation of liquid bio fertilizers (T4) Azospirillum + Rhizobium + Azotobacter in 60th day showed better response in all the parameters was tested. To prevent the environment pollution from extensive application of chemical fertilizers the liquid bio fertilizer could be recommended to farmers to insure the public health and a substainable agriculture.
