Abstract: An experiment on “Influence of integrated nutrient management (INM) on growth and yield of safed musli” was carried out at KRC college of Horticulture, Arabhavi, Gokak, Karnataka during 2018-19 as a part of Ph.D programme. The result revealed that plant supplied with humic acid recorded maximum plant height (29.99 cm) which was on par with the panchagavya (29.76 cm). Significantly maximum total dry matter production of 1.66 g plant-1 and maximum fresh root yield was observed in (0.70 kg plot-1 and 33.42 q ha-1, respectively) observed in panchagavya drenched plants. Among inorganic and organic application, 100 per cent RD NPK 50:40:40 kg ha-1 recorded significantly maximum plant height (31.53 cm), maximum number of leaves (17.48 plant-1), total dry matter production (2.18 g plant-1) and significantly highest fresh root yield per plot and per hectare (0.74 kg plot-1 and 36.26 q ha-1, respectively). Among interaction effect, panchagavya (3%) + 100 per cent RD NPK 50:40:40 kg ha-1 recorded maximum plant height (33.10 cm), total dry matter production (2.30 g plant-1) and significantly highest fresh root yield per plot and per hectare (0.81kg and 38.34q, respectively).
