Abstract: In order to estimate the impact of organic, inorganic and bio-fertilizer, a field trial was conducted at Pomology Orchard, College of Agriculture, Gwalior (M.P.). The experiment was laid out in Randomized Block Design (RBD) with three replication and twenty three treatments consisting of soil application of nitrogen, phosphorus, potash, vermi-compost, Neem-cake, FYM, Azotobacter, Phosphate solubilizing bacteria (PSB), Potash rich and no fertilizer, manures and bio fertilizer as a control in well established guava orchard. The two years pooled data (2016-17 & 2017-2018)revealed that the application of T23 = 75% NPK (375:225:300g)+ Neem cake 8 kg + Azotobacter 30ml +Potash rich 30ml +PSB 30ml per tree significantly influence the vegetative, reproductive and yield parameters of guava. Maximum increase in Tertiary shoot length (28.9 cm), maximum Shoot diameter (5.32 mm), maximum number of leaves per shoot (31.2), maximum no. of flower per Shoot (11.3), maximum fruit setting (86.0%), minimum fruit drop (14.0%), maximum fruit retention (71.9%), maximum no. of fruit per tree (313.7), maximum Fruit weight (241.6g), maximum fruit Yield (76.2kg/ tree), maximum fruit yield (211.6 q/ ha) were obtained with treatment 75% NPK (375:225:300g)+ Neem cake 8 kg + Azotobacter 30ml +Potash rich 30ml+PSB 30ml per tree (T23).
