Abstract:
The investigation was carried out to study the “Effect of different solid and liquid organic fertilizers on growth, yield and quality of tomato (Solanum lycopersicum L.) hybrid” at Horticulture Research Farm, Department of Horticulture, Naini Agricultural Institute, Sam Higginbottom University of Agriculture Technology and Sciences, Prayagraj, Uttar Pradesh during the Rabi season 2023-24 with a view to determine the effect of different solid and liquid organic fertilizers on tomato hybrid ‘SS-846’ for its growth, quality and yield and to work out the economics of various treatments. Under this experiment, over all 9 treatment was taken which were replicated thrice in RBD. T0 No treatment (only 100% recommended doses of fertilizers will be incorporated), T1 Farm yard manure (15-25 t/ha) (NPK+ 1.5-2.5 kg/ m2), T2 Crop residues (20-50 t/ha) (NPK + 2-5 kg/sqm), T3 Vermicompost (7.5 t/ha) (NPK+ 0.75 kg/sqm), T4 Poultry manure (10-40 t/ha) (NPK+ 1-4 kg/sqm), T5 Biogas spent slurry (10 t/ha) (NPK + 1 kg/sqm), T6 Vermiwash (50 ltr/ha) (NPK + 5 ml/sqm), T7 Panchgavya (50 ltr/ha) (NPK + 5 ml/sqm), T8 Jeevamruth (500 ltr/ha) (NPK + 50 ml/sqm) spray. From the above experimental finding it was found that the treatment T8 Jeevamruth (500 ltr/ha) (NPK + 50 ml/sqm) was found to be best in the terms of growth Yield and quality of tomato. While, the highest net return was found in the T8 with Rs. 6,62,926 and the highest B:C ratio was found in the same with 4.55.
