The present experiment conducted during 2007–2009 to know the effect of biofertilizers enriched in FYM along with half-dose of recommended fertilizers on five- year- old guava plants of cv. Pant Prabhat. The experiment was laid out in a Randomized Block design with 11 treatments replicated thrice with two trees per treatment. In the above experiment, trees grown with half dose of recommended fertilizers (225 g N: 195 g P: 150 g K) + 50 kg FYM enriched with 250 g Azospirillum tree⁻¹year⁻¹ found most effective to increase the vegetative growth of plants and maximum leaf N and K in the leaf tissue. Maximum leaf P content was recorded in treatment consisting of halfdose of recommended fertilizers + 50 kg FYM + Trichoderma (250 g) + Pseudomonas fluorescens (250 g). Use of biofertilizers enriched FYM along with half dose of recommended fertilizer was found as a good approach for production of quality guava fruits.
