The present investigation was carried out during Rabi season of 2012-13 at Vegetable Research Farm, Department of Horticulture, JNKVV, Jabalpur (Madhya Pradesh). The experimental material for the present investigation was comprised of twelve treatments, these treatments were sown in RCBD design with three replications, to assess the influence of organic and inorganic sources of nutrients on growth, yield attributed traits and yield economic of coriander (Coriandrum sativum L.). All the treatments resulted in significantly higher values of growth attributes and seed yield of coriander. The maximum plant height recorded with vermicompost @ 5 t ha-1 + 100 % RDF, while the minimum with poultry manure @ 2.5 t ha-1 + 50 % RDF. Vermicompost @ 5 t ha-1 + 100 % RDF recorded the maximum number of primary and secondary branches, while the minimum were observed with FYM @ 10 t ha-1 + 50% RDF. Maximum number of umbels plant-1 were found with poultry manure @ 5 t ha-1 + 100 % RDF, while it was the minimum with the application of FYM @ 10 t ha-1 + 50% RDF. The maximum number of seeds umbel-1 were found with poultry manure 5 t ha-1 + 100 % RDF, while the minimum in vermicompost @ 2.5 t ha-1 +50% RDF. Interaction effect on weight of seeds umbel-1 was found to be non-significant, but the maximum weight of seeds umbel-1 was found with poultry manure @ 5 t ha-1 + 100 % RDF, while the minimum in vermicompost @ 2.5 t ha-1 +50% RDF. Significantly maximum number of seeds plant-1 were found with poultry manure 5 t ha-1 + 100 % RDF, while it was the minimum in FYM @ 10 t ha-1 + 50% RDF. Variation in seeds yield plant-1, seed yield plot -1 and seed yield due to interactions were found to be significant. The maximum seed yield was recorded with poultry manure 5 t ha-1 + 100 % RDF, while it was the minimum with FYM @ 10 t perha-1 + 50% RDF. The highest net return of Rs 89069.4 per ha and cost benefit ratio 1:2.98 with treatment combination T5 (Poultry manure 5 t ha-1 + 100 % RDF) followed by T1 (FYM @ 20 t ha-1 + 100% RDF) with Rs 79419.4 perha-1 and 1: 2.76 respectively estimated.
