Abstract: The field experiment was carried out at Experimental Field of the Division of Vegetable Science, Sher-e-Kashmir University of Agricultural Sciences and Technology of Kashmir, Shalimar, Srinagar for two consecutive years (2018-2019) to identify the suitable time of planting and nutrient management for optimal yield of rabi potato under temperate valley of Kashmir. The experiment consisted of the treatments which were a combination of four planting dates viz; D1 (Ist fortnight of july), D2 (2nd fortnight of july), D3 (Ist fortnight of august), D4 (2nd fortnight of august) and seven combinations of organic and inorganic nutrients viz; T1 (RFD i.e 160:100:100), T2 (75% RFD + 25% Vermicompost), T3 (75% RFD + 25% FYM), T4 (50% RFD + 50% Vermicompost), T5 (50% RFD + 50% FYM), T6 (50% RFD + 25% Vermicompost + 25% FYM) and T7 (Control).The observations were recorded and among different dates of planting and nutrient management, planting on D2 (2nd fortnight of july) with nutrient combination of T6 (50% RFD + 25% Vermicompost + 25% FYM) showed best tuber yield.
