Abstract: The field experiment was carried out during the Rabi season of 2018-19 at Odisha University of Agriculture and Technology (OUAT), Bhubaneswar, Odisha, India. The experiment was laid out in Randomized Block Design (RBD) with eight treatments replicated thrice. The eight treatment schedules were T1 (100% NPK through inorganic source), T2 (75% NPK through inorganic source + 25% N through FYM), T3 (75% NPK through inorganic source + 25% N through vermicompost), T4 (50% NPK through inorganic source + 50% N through FYM), T5 (50% NPK through inorganic source + 50% N through vermicompost), T6 (25% NPK through inorganic source + 75% N through FYM), T7 (25% NPK through inorganic source + 75% N through vermicompost) and T8 (control, no fertilizer). All the recommended package of practices except nutrient management was given uniformly to all the treatments to raise a good crop. In this investigation, the results revealed that application of 75% NPK through inorganic source along with 25% N through vermicompost (T3) recorded significantly higher pod yield (0.207 kg plant-1, 7.93 kg plot-1 and 97.89 q ha-1).The initial and post-harvest soils were analysed for their physico-chemical properties by adopting standard procedures. Hence, from this course of investigation it can be concluded that for getting, higher yield and available soil nutrients in french bean, the crop should be supplied with 75% NPK through inorganic source along with 25% N through vermicompost.
