A field experiment was conducted during the summer season of 2020 at Agronomy Instructional Farm, Chimanbhai Patel College of Agriculture, Sardarkrushinagar Dantiwada Agricultural University, Sardarkrushinagar, Gujarat to assess the effect of panchagavya and jeevamrut on growth, yield attributes and yield of summer pearl millet. The result of study revealed that, application of 75% RDN + foliar spray of panchagavya @ 4% + jeevamrut @ 500 liter/ha with irrigation at 30 & 45 DAS (T₁₀) registered significantly higher growth parameters like plant height, dry matter accumulation per plant at harvest, CGR, RGR; yield attributes like effective tiller per plant (10.27), length of earhead (25.08 cm), girth of earhead (10.27 cm), grain weight per earhead (12.98 g), 1000 grain weight (8.03 g) and grain yield (4393 kg/ha) and straw yield (7567 kg/ha) of summer pearl millet.
