Abstract: A field experiment was conducted to study the effect of organic manures and fertility levels on yield of carrot (Daucus carota L.) cv. Pusa Rudhira during Rabi season 2015-16 at Horticulture Farm, S.K.N. College of Agriculture, Jobner (Jaipur) on loamy sand soil. The experiment consisting 16 treatments viz., four doses of organic manures (control, 5 t/ha vermicompost, 5 t/ha poultry manure and 15 t/ha FYM) and four fertility levels (control, 75 per cent RD of NPK, 100 per cent RD of NPK and 125 per cent RD of NPK) alone and in-combination with fertility levels was laid out in RBD with three replications. The application of organic manures and fertility levels under the treatment 5 t/ha poultry manure with 100 per cent RD of NPK remaining at par to 125 per cent RD of NPK with 5 t/ha vermicompost, exhibited maximum fresh weight of plant, top root ratio, average weight of root per plant, diameter of root, length of edible root, core diameter, percentage of core to flesh, weight of core, weight of flesh and root yield.
