Abstract: An experiment was conducted during rabi season of 20015-16 at Horticultural experimental farm, College of Horticulture, Mandsaur to study the effect of integrated nutrient management on growth, yield and quality of Fennel (Foeniculam vulgare Mill). Integrated application of 50% recommended dose of nitrogen (RDN) through vermicompost (VC) + 50% RDN through fertilizers showed higher values of all the growth, yield and quality attributes, viz. plant height, branches/plant, fresh weight, dry weight, umbels/plant, umbellates/umbel, seeds/umbel, 1,000-seed weight, seed yield, stover yield, biological yield, harvest index, protein and nitrogen% in seed over the absolute 100% RDN through FYM, respectively, closely followed by 50% RDN through FYM + 50% RDN through fertilizers. Therefore, it is recommended to apply 50% RDN through VC + 50% RDN through fertilizers and reduced chemical fertilizers to 50%.
