Abstract:

The present investigation was under taken to study the effect of organic manures and inorganic fertilizers on plant growth and tuber yield of cassava (Manihot esculenta.) under Allahabad agro climatic conditions cv. Sree vishakham. The experiment was laid out in Randomized block design with 12 treatments and each replicated thrice. The treatments consist different combinations of inorganic fertilizers like Urea, DAP, MOP, and organic manures like FYM, Poultry manure, Vermicompost. Among these 12 treatments, the growth attributes like plant height, total number of leaves per plant, total number of branches per plant are maximum, yield attributes like, average tuber weight, tuber yield are maximum and number of tuber is minimum under the treatment T9 (25% RDF +75% Poultry manure) followed by the treatment T6 (50% RDF + 50% poultry manure). Maximum gross returns (Rs.4,33,300 ha-1), net returns (Rs.2,79,724 ha-1) and B: C ratio (2.82:1) was found in treatment T9 (25% RDF + 75% poultry manure)
