dc.description.abstractStudies were carried out to evaluate the efficacy of poultry manure at different doses against root-knot nematode, Meloidogyne incognita and other phytonematodes in tomato under field condition. Effect of poultry manure on soil available nutrients and soil microbes were also recorded. Poultry manure was applied in the field at 7 days before transplanting of seedlings. The treatment Poultry manure @1500 kg/ha was found to be best in reducing the phytonemtodes population in soil including Meloidogyne incognita, which results in improved plant growth and yield of tomato over control. Nimitz (Fluensulfone 2G) being an nematicide remained at par with the treatment Poultry manure @1500 kg/ha in reducing plant parasitic nematodes in soil. Effect of different doses of poultry manure on soil available nutrients showed that the treatment Poultry manure @1500 kg/ha was found to be best in increasing the available nutrients like Nitrogen, Phosphorus and Potassium in soil which was followed by Poultry manure @1000 kg/ha over control. Studies on effect of different doses of poultry manure on soil microbes revealed that application of Poultry manure @1500 kg/ha increased the population of total fungi and bacteria in soil which was 5.36% and 5.32% over control respectively. Poultry manure at increased rates was inversely proportional to the phytonematodes population in soil and directly proportional to plant growth, yield, available nutrients and microbes in soil.
