Abstract | ||||
A field trial was carried out during season of 2017-2018 in a Randomized Complete Block Design having eight treatment combinations i.e., control, Azotopacter, 50% of recommended doses from NPK fertilizers, 50% of recommended doses from NPK fertilizers plus Azotopacter, 75% of recommended doses from NPK fertilizers, 75% of recommended doses from NPK fertilizers plus Azotopacter, 100% of recommended doses from NPK fertilizers and 100% of recommended doses from NPK fertilizers plus Azotopacter. The findings illustrated that the potato plants performance was significantly influenced due to all studied treatments. Among all treatments, 75% of recommended doses from NPK fertilizers plus Azotopacter was the superior treatment with respect to overall plant growth criteria as well as yield and its components, chemical content and great quality traits of potato tubers. Regarding the nutrients availability in soil after harvest, the highest mean values of N, P and K were obtained from soil of corresponding plants, which represent control treatment. | ||||
