Abstract
The present investigation was carried out to investigate the effect of Trichoderma on growth, yield, quality and economic feasibility of garlic at Under this experiment, the two factors (T1 Trichoderma viride and T2 Trichoderma harzianum) used in which T0 Control, T1 Trichoderma viride T2 Trichoderma harzianum and H0 Control, H1 Humic acid 1%, H2 Humic acid 2%, H3 Humic acid 3% which were replicated thrice. On the basis of results obtained during the present investigation T2 (Trichoderma harzianum)) along with the interaction of H3 Humic acid 3% was found superior in terms of growth and economy. Treatment T2 (Trichoderma harzianum) registered maximum value of 314918 /ha. with highest B: C ratio (2.69) and minimum value of 248258 /ha. under control with lowest B: C ratio (2.14).
