Abstract:
Indian economy is largely influenced by agriculture.The present work focuses on evaluation of Plant Growth Promoters (PGPs) and fungicides based products in plant growth and protection. Lab-scale experimental studies were conducted at Green Vision Life Sciences Pvt. Ltd., Pune, India during January to March 2018 to estimate germination rate (by defining physico-chemical parameters like water pH, seed quality, seed conductivity, hollow heart disease test, blotting test for germination, viability, Root growth (ANOVA analysis) andplant growth by using different application methodslike drenching, root dipping and spraying. The degree of rooting and shooting were found to be associated with the applied PGPS type and concentration. Further the project envisages a comparative analysis of agricultural products containing PGPs, where ABI4- 0.1% and ABI4 NEW-0.1% (products with higher concentration of PGPs) showing 100% germination when compared with non-treated plant(control) for plant height, No. of leaves, rootgrowthand grain weight, conductivity test, hollow heart test to calculate EEF(Expected Emergence Field). Results of this study indicates that the PGPS and fungicides either commercially available (procured from market) or lab prepared widens the commercial prospects of PGPSin more concentrationsfor increasing the agricultural productivity of otherdicot plants thereby increasing the agricultural sector’s input to India’s GDP through sustainable agriculture methods(promoting biodiversity, minimizing loss of resources).
