- Intervention effect Vitamin A and vitamin C contents of tomato were significantly influenced by the application of different sources of nutrients.
- Intervention effect Substituting 25% of inorganic nitrogen with manure along with microbial amendment influenced shelf life and nutritional qualities of tomato.
- Association Within the 75% inorganic fertilizer treatment combination, quality attributes of tomato were correlated with the type and amount of organic manure applied.
- Intervention effect Within vermicompost-treated plots, inoculation with microbial amendment gave better results than uninoculated treatments.
- Intervention effect Fruit nitrate content was reduced with 75% of the recommended inorganic fertilizer combination compared with 100% inorganic fertilizer.
