Summary, etc. An experiment was conducted at the Instruction farm attached to the College <br/>of Agriculture, Vellayani, during April - Sept 1996 with objectives of finding out the <br/>impact of biofertilizers Arospirillum , AMF and dual inoculation under varying and <br/>varied levels of fertilizer on amaranthus. Study also aimed to note the economics of <br/>the integrated approach and to identify the best economic combinations which <br/>improve yield and quality of amaranth varieties Arun and Kannara local. The study <br/>had three controls and two number of replications. <br/>The results of the study revealed that yield attributing characters like no: of <br/>harvests, yield harvest", marketable yield and dry weight were highest in plots <br/>applied with dual inoculation of Azospirillum and AMF with 75 per cent dose of <br/>p.op. Azospirillum with 50 per cent POP also gave good results. Both these <br/>treatments were on par and was better than our state recommendation. <br/>Growth characters viz: Seedling growth rate, plant height, number of leaves <br/>per plant, number of branches per plant, LAI were highest. for Azospirillum <br/>inoculation at early stages. While AMF inoculation gave notable results at later <br/>stages. <br/>Physiological parameters namely Biomass, NAR, Root dry weight were <br/>significantly improved with dual inoculation and higher dose of chemical fertilizer. <br/>Leaf dry weight, RGR and CGR responded most to inoculation with Azospirillum at <br/>early stages, while at later stage AMF performed well. Kannara local was superior to <br/> <br/> <br/> <br/>148 <br/>Arun at early stages. But Arun performed superior to Kannara local with the progress <br/>of time. Stem dry weight was significantly influenced by application of AMF. <br/>Vermicompost gave high biomass till 45 DAT. <br/>Quality of amaranth improved when biofertilizer was given with higher dose <br/>of chemical fertilizer in almost all parameters discussed. Dual inoculation with 75 per <br/>cent POP gave maximum content of total mineral and moisture. Ascorbic acid <br/>content was highest for the treatment dual inoculation with 25 per cent POP. AMF <br/>with 75 per cent POP recorded high protein content, the same bioagent with 50 per <br/>cent POP gave lowest content of oxalates. Less fiber flush of amaranth w.as got from <br/>plots given Azospirillum + 75 per cent POP. <br/>Uptake of major nutrients namely Nand P was influenced by inoculation of <br/>Azospirillum along with higher dose of chemical and AMF with lower inorganics <br/>respectively. <br/>Major nutrient status in the soil after the experiment was more in case N,P,K <br/>for dual inoculation, Arospirillum and AMF respectively. Irrespective of biofertilizer <br/>higher dose of inorganic gave greater residual amount of nutrients. <br/>Dual inoculation with 75 per cent dose and Azospirillum along with 50 per <br/>cent dose gave maximum l?:C ratio and net returns. <br/>Vermicompost recorded minimum disease score. Lower levels of chemical <br/>fertilizers recorded less infection. <br/>
