ABSTRACT

An experiment was conducted during rabi seasons of 2005-06 to study the effect of organic manures in soil parameters and yield of cabbage (Brassica olerecia var. capitata) in an acid soil. The study consisted of two sources of organic manure (vermicompost and FYM) and Azospirillum (4 kg ha-1).The highest yield of cabbage was obtained with the application of vermicompost at 3 t/ha and Azospirillum (17.89 t/ha), which show significantly superior over FYM. The post harvest organic carbon and available NPK content of soil significantly improved with the use of vermicompost and Azospirillum. The concentration of nutrient (NPK) in shoot and root of cabbage were higher in the treatment receiving vermicompost 3t/ha along with Azospirillum as compared to FYM treatments.
