Abstract: A field experiment entitled “Integrated Nutrient Management in Bt. Cotton (Gossipium 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 Twelve different treatments combinations comprising of organic and inorganic fertilizers (NPK), FYM, Azotobactor, PSB and KSB were studied with thrice replication. Different integrated fertilization treatments had exerted their significant effect on quality parameters like, ginning percentage (%), fibre characters like, fibre fineness (mv), fibre strength (g tex-1), staple length (mm), SFI and oil content (%) was recorded significantly higher with treatment T9 i.e.100 % RDF + FYM 10 t ha-1 + Azotobactor 10 ml kg-1seed + PSB 10 ml kg-1 seed + KSB 10 ml kg-1 seed with value of (39.54, 39.38, 39.46 %), (5.41, 5.33, 5.37 mv), (29.33, 29.77, 29.55 g tex-1 ), (28.15, 28.16, 28.15 mm), ( 9.67, 9.63, 9.65) and (20.92, 20.92, 20.92 %) respectively. Significantly lowest quality parameter, ginning percentage (%), fibre characters like, fibre fineness (mv), fibre strength (g tex-1), staple length (mm), SFI and oil content (%) of cotton were registered with treatment T4 during both the years as well as in pooled results.
