Comparative effect of different organic fertilizers with chemically synthesised urea on various growth parameters of Solanum melongena in favorable environmental condition

Abstract

The assessment of different organic fertilizers as compared with chemically synthesised urea, cow dung, vermicompost and urea on growth parameters of brinjal (Solanum melongena) in 16 pots. Pots in, first, second and third rows were treated with vermicompost, urea and cow dung respectively and fourth rows was kept as control, one plant was grown as per pot and five different growth and yield parameters viz. height of plant, diameter of the stem, dry weight of plant, total weight of fruits and number of fruits per plant were recorded.
