Abstract
The field experiment “Effect of organic and in organic fertilizers on growth, yield and quality of tomato” was undertaken in the Department of Horticulture, Marathwada Agricultural University, Parbhani (M.S.) in Randomized Block Design with 15 treatments on ‘Parbhani Yashshri’ variety. The treatment consisted of 100% recommended dose of fertilizers (RDF) + 25% through organic sources (Celrich, FYM, Teracare or vermicompost)., 50% RDF + 50% through organic sources and 25% REF + 75% through organic sources. No fertilizer or organic source was applied in control. The treatment 50% RDF + 50% FYM (T-8) significantly increased the height of plant, number of primary branches and number of leaves at 105 days after transplanting which was followed by the treatment 50% RDF + 50% vermicompost. Maximum number of fruits per plant, heaviest fruit, yield per plant and yield per plot were significantly more in case of treatment 50% RDF + 50% FYM which was followed by the treatment 50% RDF + 50% vermicompost. The fruit juice, TSS and ascorbic acid content was the highest in the treatment 50% RDF + 50% FYM and the shelf life of fruit was maximum in the treatment 50% RDF + 50% vermicompost.
