An experiment was conducted during 2016-17 and 2017-18 to evaluate the effect of locally isolated beneficialBacillus sp. strains on cumin growth and yield at experimental farm of ICAR-NRC on Seed Spices, Ajmer. The experiment was consist of seven treatments with three replicates in RBD design on a plot size 3×3 m for each, having line to line spacing of 30 cm and plant to plant spacing of 10-12 cm. The maximum number of secondary branches (30 plant-1) was recorded in T2- Bacillus megaterium which was at par with T5- Bacillus megaterium + Bacillus. sp. and minimum number of secondary branches (23.33 plant-1) was recorded with T7-control. The highest dry weight (5.26 g plant-1) was observed with T6- B. subtilis + B. megaterium + B. sp. followed by T4- B. megaterium + B. sp. (4.85 g plant-1). However, there was statistically non-significant difference with respect to number of primary branches plant-1 and number of umbellets umbell-1. Maximum seed yield (451.6 Kg ha-1) was recorded with T6 B. subtilis + B. megaterium + B. sp. and minimum was recorded with control (353.70 Kg ha-1) however, the highest essential oil content in cumin seeds was recorded with T4- B. subtilis + B. megaterium (4.05%) and the lowest (3.28 %) was recorded with T5- Bacillus megaterium + Bacillus. sp.
