Abstract: A two year field experiment was conducted to examine the impact of mulch, fertilizer and spacing on growth, yield and economics of broccoli (Brassica oleracea L. var. italica) under crop cafeteria in Narsinghpur District M.P. Performance of broccoli was evaluated under Effect of Spacing S1(45x30cm) S2(45x40cm) S3(45x50cm), effect of organic manure F0 (No manure) F1 (FYM) F2 (vermi-compost) and effect of mulch M0 (no mulch) M1 (silver black polythene) M2 (paddy straw) was applied. Experiment was performed with three replications with completely randomized design (RBD). The use of M2 paddy straw mulch S3(45x50 cm) spacing and F2 Vermi-compost showed the superior results as compared to all other treatments. The maximum marketable yield 21.32 Kg and total Yield 27.03 Kg was recorded from paddy straw mulch while the minimum marketable yield 14.18 Kg and total yield 18.66 Kgwas recorded from un mulch condition. Where the maximum marketable yield 24.06 Kg and total Yield 30.07Kg was recorded from S3while the minimum marketable 18.30Kg and total yield 23.76Kg was recorded from S1plant spacing.Maximum marketable yield 26.04 Kg and total Yield 32.17 Kg was recorded from F2 while the minimum 11.68 Kg and total yield 15.55 Kg was recorded from F0.
