The field experiment was conducted at Horticulture Research Farm of Choudhary Charan Singh University campus, Meerut U.P. during 2011-12. The nine treatments A1 (Azotobacter by ischolar_main treatment 0.20g/15 plants), A2 (Azotobacter by soil treatment 0.40g/plot), G1 (Gibberellic acid 100 ppm spray at 30 DAT), G2 (Gibberellic acid 150 ppm spray at 30 DAT), A1G1 (Azotobacter by ischolar_main treatment 0.20g/15 plants and gibberellic acid 100 ppm spray at 30 DAT), A1G2 (Azotobacter by ischolar_main treatment 0.20g/15 plants and gibberellic acid 150 ppm spray at 30 DAT), A2G1(Azotobacter by soil treatment 0.40g/plot and gibberellic acid 100 ppm spray at 30 DAT ), A2G2 (Azotobacter by soil treatment 0.40g/plot and gibberellic acid 150 ppm spray at 30 DAT) and A0G0 (No Azotobacter and no gibbrellic acid) were evaluated in Randomized Block Design with three replications. The experimental finding revealed that the treatment A2G2 (Soil treatment with Azotobacter + spray of GA3@ 150 ppm) gave the maximum plant height, maximum number of primary branches per plant, maximum number of secondary branches per plant, maximum plant spread, minimum number of days taken for flower bud appearance, maximum number of flowers per plant, maximum flower diameter, maximum fresh weight of flowers per plant and maximum yield of flower in comparison to individual application of GA3 and Azotobacter.

The present investigation was carried out in the orchard situated in District Saharanpur (U.P.) during the years 2010 and 2011 with an aim to improve the quality and shelf life of mango. The treatments were comprised of mulching, borax @ 0.5 and 1.0 per cent, potassium sulphate @ 0.5 and 1.0 per cent, calcium chloride @ 0.5 and 1.0 per cent, calcium nitrate @ 0.5 and 1.0 per cent, GA3 @ 25ppm and 50 ppm, NAA @ 25ppm and 50 ppm in combination with mulching and water spray without mulching as control. The spray is to be done three times at different times at different stages during the year 2010 and 2011 which is given below-Ist spray on 15th January (i.e. before flower bud burst), IInd spray on 15th February (i.e. at panicle emergence) and IIIrd spray on 15th April (i.e. after fruit set). It may be concluded from the present studies that the application of CaNO3 improves flowering parameters, increases the number of fruits and fruit yield and K2SO4 increase the physical characters of fruit.

A field experiment was conducted on the varietal performance of tuberose in Muzaffarnagar Under Western Plain Zone condition at Krishi Vigyan Kendra campus and farmers field in 2013 and 2014. The experiment was jointly organised with Directorate of Floriculture Research Institute, I.C.A.R., New Delhi. The study revealed that the Prajwal variety perform batter in comparison to other variety. Prajwal variety highest length of spike (111cm), rachis length (31.53cm), number of Florate (60.33) and diametre of spike (12.92mm) and minimum rachis length (20.22cm) number of Florates (40.40) and diametre of spike (3.70mm) in Mexican single. Which was significantly lower in comparison to variety Prajwal?
