Abstract: The field experiment was conducted on effects of organic and inorganic fertilizers on soil health, growth and yield of Cabbage (Brassica oleracea L.) Cv. Magic ball at the Soil Science Research Farm, Sam Higginbottom University of Agriculture & Technology Sciences during Rabi season 2017-2018. The maximum plant height (24.45cm), maximum head diameter (21.56 cm) and maximum yield (24.12 tonnes/ha-1) was obtained in treatment T8 (@40kg ha-1 N40 + @10 t ha-1 FYM)). Growth parameters, soil properties, increased significantly with the application of FYM and inorganic fertilizers with recommended dose of P&K i.e. maximum pH, EC (dSm-1) and pore space(%) was obtained in T8 [@40kg ha-1 N40 + @10 t ha-1 FYM] were increase with increase in fertilizer levels. The lowest values related to all parameters were obtained in control treatment. Cost benefit ratio (C: B) 1: 3.56 was highest in T6 (@40kg ha-1 N40 + @0 t ha-1 FYM) and T8(@40kg ha-1 N40 + @10 t ha-1 FYM) was more profitable Rs 84934.40 ha-1 than any other treatments and recommendations.
