Abstract: The present study was carried out during 2014 and 2015 rabi season at Vegetable Improvement Scheme, Dr. Balasaheb Sawant Konkan Krishi Vidyapeeth, Dapoli, Dist. Ratnagiri, Maharashtra state (India). The field experiment was laid out in Randomized Block Design comprising of thirteen treatments replicated thrice. Treatments comprised of T1 [25% N through FYM + 75% N through Urea], T2 [50% N through FYM + 50% N through Urea], T3 [75% N through FYM + 25% N through Urea], T4 [25% N through Vermicompost + 75% N Urea], T5 [50% N through Vermicompost + 50% N through Urea], T6 [75% N through Vermicompost + 25% N through Urea], T7 [25% through N Poultry manure + 75% N through Urea], T8 [50% through N Poultry manure + 50% N through Urea], T9 [75% N through Poultry manure + 75% N through Urea], T10 [25% N through Groundnut cake + 75% N through Urea], T11 [50% N through Groundnut cake + 50% N through Urea], T12 [75% N through Groundnut cake + 25% N through Urea] and T13 [Absolute control]. Among the treatments, application of 50 % N through Poultry manure and 50 per cent N through urea was recorded highest yield and yield contributing character such as green pod yield of chilli (128.01 q ha-1), dry matter of green pod yield (11.22 q ha-1), stover yield (15.28 q ha-1) and weight of fresh fruit/ plant (345.63 g plant-1). The different sources of organic manures and their combination with of inorganic fertilizer (urea) do not showed any significant effect on physico-chemical properties (pH, Electrical conductivity and Organic carbon) of soil.
