Abstract

The experiment entitled “Effect of inorganic fertilizer and organic manure on growth, yield and quality of carrot (Daucus carota L.)” was conducted during the rabi season of the year 2022-2023 at the instructional farm of the department of Horticulture, AKS University, satna (M.P.). The experiment was laid out in a Randomized Block Design comprising 12 treatments, each replicated three times. T0- Control, T1-100% RDF of NPK ( 100 : 70 : 90 kg/ha), T2- Vermicompost (10t/ha), T3- Poultry manure (10 t/ha), T4- FYM ( 20 t/ha), T5-50 % RDF + Vermicompost 10t/ ha, T6-50 % RDF + Poultry manure 10 t/ha, T7-50 % RDF + FYM 20t/ha, T8-100 % RDF + Vermicompost 10 t /ha, T9-100 % RDF + Poultry manure 10t /ha, T10-100 % RDF + FYM 20t /ha, T11-Vermicompost 10t /ha + Poultry manure 10t /ha + FYM 20 t/ha. The results revealed that the treatment T11, which includes Vermicompost (10 t/ha), Poultry manure (10 t/ha) and FYM (20 t/ha), was identified as the most effective among the various treatments in terms of growth, yield and quality in the satna agro-climatic conditions
