Abstract
The current investigation entitled “Evaluation of organic nutrients management practises on growth, yield and quality of cabbage (Brassica oleracea var. capitata) cv. Kranti” was conducted at Horticulture farm, Department of Horticulture, Rajasthan College of Agriculture, Udaipur during winter season 2020- 21. The experiment was made up of the ten treatment of different combination of organic inputs and those were replicated thrice before applied randomly in 30 plots under Randomized Block Design (RBD). The crop's recommended nitrogen dose (RDN) was 150 kg/ha. Results showed that among organic nutrients management practises application of T4 treatment (T1 i.e. enriched compost as 100 % RDN + Fortified Panchagavya spray @ 4 % at 10 to 20 days after transplanting and 15 days after 1st spray + Fortified Jeevamrut @ 500 litres /ha twice at 15 days interval) was recorded with significantly highest plant height (30, 60 DAT and at harvest), leaf area, plant spread, leaf length (cm), number of non-whorled leaves per plant (30, 60 DAT and at harvest), leaf width (cm), with minimum days taken to head formation (DAT) and days taken to head harvest, along with maximum polar diameter of head, equatorial diameter of head (cm), fresh weight of head (g), volume of head (cm3), head compactness (%), yield per plot, TSS, vitamin A (μg/100 g) ascorbic acid, chlorophyll content (mg/100g) and net return (Rs /ha) while, lowest plant height (30, 60 DAT and at harvest), leaf area, plant spread, leaf length (cm), number of non- whorled leaves per plant (30, 60 DAT and at harvest), leaf width (cm), with maximum days taken to head formation (DAT) and days taken to head harvest, along with minimum polar diameter of head, equatorial diameter of head (cm), fresh weight of head (g), volume of head (cm3), head compactness (%), yield per plot, TSS, vitamin A (μg/100 g) ascorbic acid, chlorophyll content (mg/100g) and net return (Rs /ha) was recorded under T10 treatment i.e. control (no manure).
