Summary
The study on variation in growth and yield parameters in brinjal (Solanum melongena L.) under organic\n management practices were carried out during 2008-09 at Saidapur Farm, Hi-Tech Horticulture Unit,\n University of Agricultural Sciences, Dharwad. There was significant difference among the organic plant\n protection and integrated pest management practices in all the growth and yield parameters. With respect to nutrient management practices, maximum plant height was recorded in treatment RDF + FYM.\n (60.2 and 74.0cm, respectively) both at 60 and 90 DAP. Treatment RDF + FYM recorded maximum number of branches (14.6 and 23.3 branches/ plant), number of leaves (66.8 and 93.2 leaves/ plant), leaf area (142.3 and 167.1 cm2), dry matter production (13.8 and 17.8 g), number of fruits per plant (undamaged) (30.2) and maximum fruit yield (25.5 t/ ha) under IPM condition compared to organic plant protection both at 60 and 90 DAP, respectively.
