Abstract: A field experiment entitled, effect of organic nutrient management on yield and quality of cucumber (Cucumis sativus L.) was carried out during summer-2016 Horticulture Instructional Farm, Department of Horticulture, Chimanbhai Patel College of Agriculture, Sardarkrushinagar Dantiwada Agricultural University, Sardarkrushinagar. Total nine treatments of organic nutrients were tested in the Factorial Randomized Block Design with three replications and evaluated on the basis of yield and quality characteristics of cucumber. Treatment (T9) 50% N through caster cake + 50% N through poultry manure + biofertilizers + Trichoderma viride + neem oil recorded significantly maximum yield and quality parameters viz., number of fruits per plant, average weight of fruit, yield per plant, yield per meter square; as well as quality parameters viz., fruit length and diameter of fruit.
