Abstract: An experiment was conducted during rabi season of 2014-15 at Main Garden, Department of Horticulture, Dr. Panjabrao Deshmukh Krishi Vidyapeeth, Akola, to find out effect of different levels of nitrogen and phosphorus on growth and seed yield of ajwain. The treatment consisted of four levels of N (25, 50,75, 100 kg ha-1) and two levels of P (25 and 50 kg ha-1). Results indicated that application of 75 kg N ha-1 and 50 kg P ha-1 significantly increased plant height, number of primary and secondary branches per plant, number of umbels per plant, number of umbellets per umbel, seed yield per plant, per plot and per ha, test weight and B:C ratio (3.11: 1).The days to first flowerings, 50% flowering and days to harvesting was minimum with application of 25 kg N ha-1 and 25 kg P ha-1. Similarly the interaction of different nitrogen and phosphorus levels significantly increased growth and seed yield of ajwain.
