An experiment was conducted on loamy sand soil of Instructional Farm, Department of Agronomy, Chimanbhai Patel College of Agriculture, S.D. Agricultural University, Sardarkrushinagar (Gujarat) during the Rabi season of years 2011-12 and 2013-14 on to study “Integrated Nitrogen Management in Dill Seed (Anethum graveolens L.) under North Gujarat Agro-Climatic Condition” in Randomized Block Design (RBD) with three replications and Fourteen treatment combinations comprising urea, FYM, Vermicompost and bio-fertilizer application and Gujarat dill seed 3 was used as test crop. The pooled results of all the growth and yield attributes of dill seed such as plant height, number of branches per plant, number of umbel per plant, number of umbellate per umbel, number of seeds per umbellate and 1000- seed weight were significantly influenced by integrated nitrogen management. Significantly higher values of all the above parameters were recorded with 75 % RDN through urea + 25 % RDN through vermicompost (T6) which ultimately reflected in higher seed (1651 kg/ha) and stover (2508 kg/ha) yields.
