The result showed significant effect on plant height (66.40 cm), girth of stem (1.43 cm), number of branches plant-1 (17.10), plant spread along the row (38.30 cm), plant spread across the row (38.32 cm), days to start flowering (68.10 days), flowering duration (24.40 days), number of flower plant-1 (23.50), circumferences of flower (24.20 cm), fresh weight of flower (12.25 g) and fresh yield plant-1 (264.08 g) was observed in T10 i.e. 2.5 tonne poultry manure ha-1 with 50% Recommended Dose of Fertilizers (RDF) followed by T4,T7 and T3.

Keywords: Marigold, poultry manure, inorganic fertilizers and vermicompost
