Description The present investigation entitled "Effect of biofertilizers, GA3
and micronutrients on growth, yield and quality of sapota cv.
Kalipatti" was conducted simultaneously at Regional Horticultural
Research Station, Navsari Agricultural University, Navsari and Fruit
Research Station, Navsari Agricultural University, Ta. Gandevi, Dist.
Navsari.
- The present investigation was laid out in Randomized Block
.'
Design including nine treatments comprising Tl i.e. 100% RDF (control),

T2 i.e. 100% RDF + Biofertilizers (Azospirillum + PSB) @ 40 ml/ tree, T3 i.e.
100% RDF + GA3 @ 50 ppm, T4 i.e. 100% RDF + micronutrient mixture
Grade 4 @ 0.5%, Ts i.e. 100% RDF + Biofertilizers (Azospirillum + PSB) @
40 mil tree + GA3@ 50 ppm + micronutrient mixture Grade 4 @0.5%, T6
i.e. 75% RDF + Biofertilizers (Azospirillum + PSB) @ 40 ml/ tree, T7 i.e.

Grade 4 @ 0.5% and T. i.e. 75% RDF + Biofertilizers(Azospirillum + PSB) @
40 mil tree + GAJ @ 50 ppm + micronutrient mixture Grade 4 @ 0.5%
and replicated thrice. FYM (100 kg I tree) was applied as a basal dose in

June as per the recommendation. As per the treatments soil application
of RDF was carried in two equal splits i.e. in June and October. Liquid
formulation of Azospirillum and PSB (40 ml eachl tree) applied in the
soil in the month of July. Foliar spray of GAJ @50 ppm and
micronutrient mixture grade-4 @ 0.5% were applied in the month of
November and December respectively. The observations on growth
characters, fruit development, yield and yield attributes, physical and
chemical properties as well as soil nutrient status after completion of
experiment and leaf nutrient status in the month October and March
were recorded and analyzed statistically .

The significantly higher yield (t/ hal was recorded under the
treatment Ts i.e. 100% RDF + Biofertilizers (Azospirillum + PSB) @ 40 mil
tree + GAJ @ 50 ppm+ micronutrient mixture Grade 4 @ 0.5% with
highest net returns of ~ 2,60,922 and benefit cost ratio of 4.09 at Navsari
location. Whereas, at Gandevi, treatment T9 i.e. 75% RDF + Biofertilizers
(Azospirillum + PSB) @ 40 mil tree + GA3 @ 50 ppm+ micronutrient

mixture Grade 4 @ 0.5% resulted in significantly higher yield (ti hal ....
with highest net returns of ~ 3,03,886 and benefit cost ratio of 4.45 in
sapota cv. Kalipatti.
The pooled results indicated that significantly higher no. of

flower buds/ shoot (12.1), no. of fruit set/ shoot (3.18), fruit length (1.10
cm) in December, no. of fruits/ tree (3065.4), yield/ plant (217.8 kg),
yield/ ha (21.8 t), maximum days for ripening (7.40) and shelf life (9.60
days) were recorded under the treatment T9 i.e. 75% RDF + Biofertilizers
(Azospirillum + PSB) @ 40 mll tree + GA3 @ 50 ppm+ micronutrient
mixture Grade 4 @ 0.5% with highest net returns of ~ 2,82,710 and
benefit,' cost ratio of 4.28 in pooled results in sapota cv. Kalipatti.
On the basis of pooled results, it can be concluded that highest
net returns with higher benefit cost ratio can be "Obtained with
application of 75% RDF along with Biofertilizers (Azospirillum + PSB) @
40 ml per tree and foliar spraying of GA3 @ 50 ppm as well as
micronutrient mixture Grade 4 @ 0.5% in sapota cv. Kalipatti.
