A field experiment was laid out to study the effect of different organic manures and biofertilizers on plant growth, yield attributing characters and yield of fenugreek during Rabi season, 2020-21 at Horticulture farm, Kulbhaskar Ashram Post Graduate College Prayagraj. The result revealed the superiority of nitrogen through 3.5 t ha-1 Vermicompost + Rhizobium + PSB brought significant improvements in various growth parameter viz., plant height maximum (15.23,35.50 and 60.50cm.) at 30 DAS, 60 DAS, and at harvest, respectively and number of primary branches per plant (5.80 and 13.25) at 60 DAS and at harvest in (T5) and DAS to 50% flowering (81.65 days) early flowering (T4) where application of 5.5 t ha-1 FYM + Rhizobium seed treatment + PSB. These yield attributing character were also found to vary significantly viz., number of pod per plant (32.00), pod length (12.57cm), number of seed per pod (12.00),test weight of seed (12.70 g) in data presented table (2), seed and straw yield kg per ha (1566.79,2332.53 kg) in table (3) significantly increased with application of 3.5 t ha-1 Vermicompost + Rhizobium + PSB in (T5).
