The work is aimed to find out the most suitable substitute of CAN fertilizer to assess its effect on fertility, growth and yield of apricot. The experiment constituted 11 treatments replicated thrice in RBD design at the Research Farm of Department of Soil Science and Water Management, Nauni, Solan, India during 2015 and 2016. The highest organic carbon (1.34, 1.21%) was recorded with treatment T 11  [100% urea enriched compost + 0% Ca (NO 3 ) 2 ] at 0–15 and 15–30 cm depths. There were significant variations and maximum available N and P contents were recorded under treatment T 7  (urea 100% + lime 708 g/tree) while, maximum K was in T 1  which indicated that available N, P and K increased by 16.95% and 16.58%; 34.83% and 32.36%; 19.98% and 12.76% over the initial values recorded, respectively at 0–15 and 15–30 cm depths. The highest available Ca (4.46 and 4.11[cmol (p + ) kg −1 ]) was recorded under T 1 , Mg (2.11 and 1.95 [cmol (p + ) kg −1 ]) under T 6  and available S contents (56.46 kg ha −1 and 51.67 kg ha −1 ) under T 9  at surface and subsurface depths, respectively. Available Zn, Cu, Fe and Mn were highest under treatment T 6  (urea100%+ 0%Ca (NO 3 ) 2 ). Maximum increase in tree height (0.40 m) and trunk girth (0.50 cm) was observed under T 7  (urea 100% + lime 708 g/tree). Similarly, maximum fruit yield (30.03 kg/tree) was recorded with T 7 . From the present investigation, it is concluded that application of urea 100%+ lime 708 g/tree improved soil fertility, plant growth and yield during the study.
