Abstract :
BACKGROUND: Application of bio-fertilizers, especially the plant growth promoting bacteria, is most important strategy for the integrated management of the plant nutrition in the sustainable agriculture system with sufficient input. OBJECTIVES: This study is aimed to examine the changes of plant production and Economic value of basil in response to apply different level of fertilizer and cultivar. METHODS: This research was carried out via combined split plot in time experiment based on randomized complete blocks design with three replications along 2017-2018 year in greenhouse condition. Main factor included five fertilizer and bio fertilizer combinations [F1: Humic acid (4 kg.ha-1) + Complete fertilizer (N-P-K: 100-180-250), F2: Phosphorus bio fertilizer (500 gr.ha-1) + Complete fertilizer (N-P-K: 100-180-250), F3: Humic acid (4 kg.ha-1) + Phosphorus bio fertilizer (500 gr.ha-1) + Complete fertilizer (N-P-K: 100-180-250), F4: Humic acid (4 kg.ha-1) + Phosphorus bio fertilizer (500 gr.ha-1), F5: Control (None use of Humic acid and Phosphorus bio fertilizer) contain Complete fertilizer (N-P-K: 100-180-250)]. The sub-factor was the basil variety, including green (C1) and purple basil (C2). RESULT: According result of analysis of variance effect of different level of fertilizer and cultivar on studied traits was significant at 1% probability level. Interaction effect of treatments (instead fertilizer × cultivar) was not significant. Mean comparison of different level of fertilizer revealed F4 had the highest amount of measured traits. Also C1 cultivar was superior to C2 cultivar. Compare interaction effect of treatment showed C1 × Phosphorus bio fertilizer × Humic acid with nonuse complete fertilizer had the highest amount of studied traits. CONCLUSION: Generally based on result of current research F4 treatment [Humic acid (4 kg.ha-1) + Phosphorus bio fertilizer (500 gr.ha-1)] by achieve 26.8 t.ha-1 wet yield, 2.1 t.ha-1 dry yield, 92.5 kg.m-3 and 48.5 Million Toman was the best treatment and can be advised to producers in studied region.
