Impact Of Various Organic Media On Germination And Growth Of Selected Fruit Vegetables

Organic farming is commonly regarded as a system for improving vegetable quality. Organic farming can be considered as a system providing good conditions to improve the vegetable quality. Nevertheless there are many possibilities to ameliorate the methods of cultivation and storage of organic crops to obtain better production and qualitative results. The aim of work was to analyze the effects of the organic methods namely Cow dung manure, Goat manure, Pseudomonas and Coconut peat with a control, on the seed germination and growth parameters of three selected fruit vegetables such as Abelmosches esculentus, Solanum melongena and Capsicum annum. During the growing period Solanum melongena L. shows early flowering and fruit setting in Goat manure treated soil compared to other treatments. Abelmosches esculentus (L) Moench. Shows maximum performance in Cow dung manure, Goat manure and Coco peat. Capsicum annum L. yields maximum in Goat manure and Coco peat in all aspects. It showed highest results in growth parameters when cultivated in Goat manure while quality and quantity of fruits were better in Coconut peat. So Goat manure and Coco peat are suitable organic media for Capsicum annum L. The present investigation concludes that Cow dung, Goat manure and Coco peat are the best organic manure for the chosen fruit vegetables. From an overall view it can be concluded that all organic manure are good enough and they yield better results for different plants differently.
