The experiment comprised of 10 treatments of different combinations of organic manures and panchagavya replicated thrice in a Randomized Block Design. The main objective of the experiment was to evaluate the influence of organic manures and panchagavya on growth and yield of Baby corn. The organic manures include (Vermicompost – 2.5 t/ha), (Neem cake- 500 kg/ha) and (Poultry manures- 2 t/ha) where-as levels of Panchagavya include Panchagavya -3% of 3 spray, FYM – 6 t ha-1 and Panchagavya -3% of 3 spray + FYM 3 t/ha.
