Abstract: The field experiment with different combinations of organic manures and inorganic fertilizers was undertaken to elicit information on integrated nutrient management in Phyllanthus amarus under Northern Dry Zone of Karnataka at Main Horticultural Research and Extension Centre (MHREC), UHS, Udyanagiri, Bagalkot, during 2018-19. Among different treatment combinations, application of M2V1F2 (15 tonnes FYM, 2 tonnes vermicompost and fertilizer combination of 100: 45: 45 kg NPK per hectare) had recorded significantly maximum growth attributing parameters like plant spread (75.47 cm2/plant), leaf area (497.67cm2/plant), leaf area index (3.32), Cumulative growth rate (11.53 g/m2/day), Absolute growth rate (0.23 g/day) and the yield parameters like total dry matter accumulation (16.17 g/plant),fresh herbage yield (22.19 g/plant and 14.79 t/ha) and dry herbage yield (9.92 g/plant and 6.61 t/ha). Whereas, the maximum nutrient availability in soil after harvest (P2O5-52.00 and K2O-924.33 kg/ha) was recorded with treatment M2V0F0 (15 tonnes FYM, 0 tonnes vermicompost along with 0 kg NPK per hectare).
