Abstract: The present investigation entitled “Effect of Micro nutrients and Organic manures on establishment and plant growth of Dragon fruit (Hylocereus polyrhizus) under Prayagraj agro climatic condition, c.v. Red jaina†was carried out at the Central research field, department of Horticulture, Naini Agricultural Institute, Sam Higginbottom University of agriculture, Technology and Sciences, Prayagraj (U.P.) in the year 2018-19. The experiment was conducted in Randomized Block Design having 11 treatments in three replications. The allocation of the different treatments of the individual Dragon fruit plants using random number in each replication. On the basis of results obtained, the treatment T2 (Vermicompost 75% +F.Y.M. 25%) was found to be the best in terms of maximum plant height (46.73 cm), maximum number of branches (6.0), minimum days taken to first sprouting (20.03), maximum new shoot height (39.16 cm), maximum plant canopy north to south (21.36cm), maximum plant canopy east to west (20.60cm), maximum no. of sprouting per plant (4.66) and the minimum the parameter was recorded in T0 control. Hence, It is recommended that the application of micronutrients and organic manures is a promising approach to increase the vegetative growth and survival percentage of dragon fruit plant. Application of micronutrient and organic manure indicated to have better impact on physical process of dragon fruit plant.
