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, various solid and liquid organic manures on growth and yield of finger millet (Eleusine coracana L.). 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 the individual factors had significantly influence on the growth characters of finger millet. The higher growth parameters at 80 DAS was significantly recorded among establishment methods in Transplanting, among solid organic manures in Poultry manure and among liquid organic manures in Vermiwash.
