Abstract

A field experiment was conducted in certified organic field SMOF, SHUATS during Kharif season (2021 and 2022) to study the impact of establishment methods, solid and liquid organic manures on growth of finger millet. The experiment was carried out in split-split plot design replicated thrice with 27 treatments. Treatments comprised of three establishment methods (Line sowing, Broadcasting and Transplanting), three solid organic supplements (100% FYM, 100% poultry manure and 100% vermicompost) each in combination with three different liquid organic supplements (3% panchagavya, 3% jeevamrutham and 3% vermiwash, respectively). All three parameters recorded no significant effect at 40 DAS. However, at 80 DAS significantly higher plant height 97.85 cm in second year, number of tillers 3.87 and 3.83 first year and pooled respectively, dry weight 49.54, 46.90 and 48.22 g/plant in first, second year and pooled respectively was recorded in Transplanting + Vermicompost + Panchgavya.
