Ginger is an important rhizomatous spice is widely cultivated in India. A study was conducted to assess the effect of organic manure and inorganic healizer on yield and quality of ginger. Highest rhizome yield (11.59 t/ha) was recorded with azospirillum alone in comparison to inorganic fertilizers although the differences were non significant. The quality attributes significantly increased by all the organic fertilizer treatments. Maximum dry matter ( 17.7%), oil (2.0%) and oleoresin ( 6.98%) was recorded under the application of azospirillum + phosphorus +wood ash. The lowest dry matter was recorded with phosphorus alone when no biofertilizer was applied in comparison to inorganic fertilizers.
