Abstract
The present investigation entitled Role of organic manures in
combination with inorganic fertilizers in tomato production Cv. Hisar Arun
was conducted during spring summer Season of 2006-07 at Vegetable
Research farm and Laboratory of CCS Haryana Agricultural University Hisar
to find out the effect of organic manures and inorganic fertilizers on growth
yield and quality of tomato. The experiment was laid out in a Randomized
block design in tree replication having thirteen treatments. The observations
were recorded on Vegetative growth flowering, yield and fruit quality. Each
treatment and replicated three times in plot having area 3 x 2.7 m2. The
results indicated that organic manures and inorganic fertilizer was marked
effect on growth and yield parameters. The yield attributing characters like
number of fruits/ plant, Average fruit weight, yield /plant and yield (q/ha).
Were maximum with the application of 17.5t FYM +50% RDF. Among the
quality parameters like pericarp thickness, lycopene, total soluble solids,
ascorbic acid (mg/100%), acidity (%) were also significant influenced by the
combination of organic manures and inorganic fertilizers
