Effect of Biofertilizer and Chemical Fertilizer on Wheat Yield under Two Soil Types in Experimental Greenhouse

Biofertilizers can be used as complementary in sustainable agriculture. The main target of this study was effects of nitrogen and phosphorus fertilizers and chemical fertilizers on wheat yield and yield components in two soil types. Experimental design as the factorial formed completely randomized design with three replications was executed. Experiment Factors included two soil types (sandy loam and clay loam) and 9 fertilizer treatments. For the experiment implementation used 100 gram per hectare of Nitrokara (Azorhizobium caulinodans) and Barvar 3 phosphorus (Pseudomonas putida، Strain P13، Pantoea agglomerans، Strain P5 and Pseudomonas putida، Strain MC1) biofertilizers in single and combined forms by method of seed inoculation. The results showed positive effects of clay loam type and inoculation of two biofertilizer types especially in the presence of 50% of chemical fertilizers on shoot dry weight، root dry weight، number of grains per spike، 1000 grain weight and wheat grain yield. The results showed 100% chemical fertilizer and phosphorus biofertilizer in combination with 50 % of chemical fertilizer treatments showed the highest effect in most characteristics and control treatment showed the lowest effect in this characteristics. Nitrokara biofertilizer in combination with 50% of chemical fertilizer had the maximum 1000 grain weight. Phosphorus biofertilizer in combination with 50% of chemical fertilizer on wheat yield and yield components showed a better effect than Nitrokara biofertilizer. The results of this research showed by combining biological and chemical fertilizers can reduce consumption of chemical fertilizers.
