Abstract

The field experiment was conducted during rabi season of 2012. Results revealed that organic and inorganic fertilizers combinations significantly increase the growth and green pod yield of french bean. 100% NPK + PM @ 5 t ha-1 recorded maximum plant height, number of branches, number of leaves, mean leaf area, length of pod, diameter of pod, number of pod, weight of pod, green pod yield (30.98 q per ha-1), over other treatments. But in case of highest net returns (48013 ha-1) and BCR (2.33) was obtained with application of 100% NPK + PM @ 2.5 t ha-1 and next best treatment was 100% NPK + VC @ 2.5 t ha-1 BCR (2.11).
