Abstract: A field experiment entitled ʻʻEffect of Vermicompost and Phosphorus Solubilizing Bacteria (PSB) on Growth and Development of Guava cv. L - 49ʼʼ was conducted during the year 2018-19, at the Fruit Instructional Farm, Department of Fruit Science, College of Horticulture and Forestry, Jhalawar. The experiment consisted of different treatments of vermicompost and PSB and was laid out in Randomized Block Design. Amongst different treatments application, treatment T17 (7.5 kg vermicompost + 50 g PSB per plant application was found significantly superior over other treatments in terms of growth and development parameters such as per cent increase in plant height, rootstock girth, scion girth, number of shoots/plant, number of nodes/plant. T17 treatment has also exhibited better results in enhancing the organic carbon percentage, available N, P and K content of soil status and was found significantly superior over other treatments. Like-wise, soil pH and electrical conductivity also reduced significantly under T17 treatment as compared traits to other treatments. Overall, T17 treatment exhibited better plant growth and development combinations and improvement in soil health of guava cv. L - 49 plants as compared to other treatment of vermicompost and PSB.
