Abstract: A field experiment entitled “Integrated Nutrient Management in Bt. Cotton (Gossypium hirsutum L.) Under North-West Agro-Climatic Zone of Gujarat†was conducted during Kharif season of 2015-16 and 2016-17 at the Agricultural School Farm, Junagadh Agricultural University, Halvad. The 12 different treatments combinations comprising of organic and inorganic fertilizers (NPK), FYM, Azotobactor, PSB and KSB were studied. The experimental result showed that the significantly highest seed cotton yield (3014, 3221 and 3118 kg ha-1), stalk yield (6185, 6112 and 6149 kg ha-1) and lint yield (1229, 1228 and 1229 kg ha-1) of cotton crop were recorded under application of 100 % RDF + FYM 10 t ha-1 + Azotobactor 10 ml kg-1 seed + PSB 10 ml Kg-1 seed + KSB 10 ml kg-1 seed (T9). Similarly, the yield attributes viz., plant height (130.73, 128.73, 129.73 cm), total number of sympodial branches per plant (20.00, 20.33, 20.17), total number of bolls per plant (40.87, 41.17, 41.02) and boll weight (5.02, 5.07, 5.04 g) at harvest of cotton crop were recorded significantly higher under treatment T9 during both the years as well as in pooled results.
