Observational analysis showed Bacillus velezensis increases fruit yield by 66.3 t/ha in pineapple, suggesting benefits for organic agriculture.
Biofertilizers are the best choice to promote organic and sustainable agriculture by enhancing productivity and reducing chemical fertilizer use. The results showed that T4 bacterial pure culture significantly improved plant height (96.83±0.50 cm) and D-leaf length (84.06±1.55cm) at the third month of application (P < 0.05). In addition, T4 significantly enhanced fruit weight (1.12±0.07 kg/fruit) and fruit yield (66.3 t/ha) compared to other treatments (P < 0.05). However, the fruit characteristics including fruit lengths, perimeters, citric acid contents, and total soluble solids (TSS) of pineapple fruits were not significantly differed. Therefore, these findings indicated the efficacy of B. velezensis as a biofertilizer is enhanced pineapple productivity.
