An experiment was conducted under insect proof net and open condition the performance of papaya (Carica papaya L.) on application of different growth promoting substances under net house and open condition. The experiment was laid out in factorial randomized block design with three replications and twelve treatments. Results indicated that yield attributes such as number of flowers, fruits, average fruit weight and yield were significantly higher in treatment containing, 100% RDF through Fertigation + Trichokavach (50 g/plant) + Chitosan (20 g/plant) + Seaweed extract (20 g/plant) + Penicillium pinophilum (20 g/plant) + Pseudomonas putidda (4 ml/litre) + Phosphoric acid (20 ml/plant) + Salicylic acid (300 ppm) + Power plus (5 ml/lit) and grown under insect proof net.
