Abstract: An experiment was conducted to examine the response of four different organic manures viz. farmyard manure, vermicompost, castor cake and poultry manure as a source of nitrogen with or without chemical fertilizers, phosphorus and potassium and biofertilizer i.e. PSB in a Randomized Block Design with three replications during the rabi season of the year 2012 and 2013. The results revealed that, the significantly maximum available nitrogen after crop harvesting (216.84 kg/ha) was recorded with T2 (Farm yard manure 15 t/ha + Recommended dose of NPK) in pooled data. The maximum available phosphorus after crop harvesting (39.75 kg/ha and 38.19 kg/ha) was recorded with T15 (Recommended dose of N as vermicompost + P and K + PSB) during the year 2013 and in pooled data, respectively. Whereas, maximum available potassium after crop harvesting (192.38 kg/ha) was recorded with T2 (Farm yard manure 15 t/ha + Recommended dose of NPK) in pooled data. Maximum increase in available nitrogen (6.55 %) in soil was noted with T6 (Recommended dose of N as poultry manure). The significantly maximum increase in available phosphorus (9.17 %) in soil was recorded with T17 (Recommended dose of N as Castor Cake + P and K + PSB) during the year 2012, whereas, (12.61 % and 10.42 %) was noted with T18 (Recommended dose of N as poultry manure + P and K + PSB) during the year 2013 and in pooled data, respectively.
