Sumario:The objective of this study was to evaluate the growth and performance of Clitoria ternatea with the application of biological fertilizers. Two experiments were carried out in the experimental field "La Playita" of the Technical University of Cotopaxi, La Maná extension, Cotopaxi, Ecuador, geographically located at Latitude S0 ° 56 '27 "and Longitude W 79 ° 13' 25". At a height of 179 meters above sea level. In the first experiment, the treatments consisted of a control treatment and three doses of biol that were 10, 15 and 20 cc per liter of water, where agro-productive characteristics were evaluated; number of flowers, number of fresh and dry pods, seeds per pod, weight of pods and 100 seeds per treatment. The second consisted of evaluating three commercial bio-inputs; lixilom®, biol and ecorhizas®. The variables under study were; Plant height (cm), stem diameter (cm), forage production (g), mineral composition of the foliage and soil microbiology. The results obtained in the doses of biol, indicate that the application of 15cc per liter of water benefits the agro-productive characteristics of Clitoria ternatea. In what was the study of bio-inputs, the application of the ecorrizha treatment generated the highest biomass of the forage in relation to the application of the lixilom treatment, which obtained the highest plant height and mineral concentration in the leaves. The microbiological analysis reflected the larger population for bacteria compared to that of fungi.
