Abstract: The present investigation titled “Impact of Integrated Nutrient Management on Economy of Tomato” was conducted at Horticultural Research cum Instructional Farm, IGKV, Raipur (C.G.) during Rabi season 2021-22 and 2022-23. The experiment was arranged in a randomized block with three replications and twelve treatments, i.e. T₁: control, T₂: 50% RDF, T₃: 75% RDF, T₄: 100% RDF, T₅: 50% RDF + 50% FYM, T₆: 50% RDF + 50% Vermicompost, T₇: 50% RDF + 50% FYM + PSB, T₈: 50% RDF + 50% Vermicompost + PSB, T₉: 75% RDF + 25% FYM, T₁₀: 75% RDF + 25% Vermicompost, T₁₁: 75% RDF + 25% FYM + PSB and T₁₂: 75% RDF + 25% Vermicompost + PSB. The result of this study showed that cost of cultivation (Rs. ha^-1) was recorded maximum in 50% RDF + 50% Vermicompost + PSB treatment, gross profit (Rs. ha^-1), net profit (Rs. ha^-1) and benefit ratio: cost was recorded maximum in the treatment of 75% RDF + 25% Vermicompost + PSB.
