Abstract:
A field experiment was conducted to “Effect of organic nutrition practices on yield parameters of papaya (Carica papaya L.) Under Precision farming techniques.” during the year 2019-2020 at Horticulture Research Farm, Precision Farming Development Centre (PFDC) IGKV, Raipur (Chhattisgarh). The experiment was laid out in a randomized block design with twelve treatments combinations and three replications. The plant height, petiole length, stem girth, initiation of flowering, number of fruits, fruit weight, yield plant^-1 and yield ha^-1 increased with application of organic manures like vermicompost, neem cake, cow urine, neem seed extract, vermiwash, PSB and pseudomonas etc. Highest fruit yield plant^-1 (63.72kg plant^-1) was recorded in combination of manures like vermiwash, cow urine and neem seed extract. Under experiment highest fruit yield ha^-1 was recorded in 80% RDF using vermiwash, cow urine and neem seed extract (194.41 t ha^-1) and lowest fruit yield ha^-1 was found in conventional system.
