Abstract

An experiment was conducted in the Experimental Farm Garden, at Assam Agricultural University, Jorhat to see the influence of manure and fertilizers on growth and yield of Pipali (Piper longum) in Assam conditions. Result revealed that maximum yield (576.25kg/ha dry) was obtained when manure and fertilizers was applied @ 175:75:75 kg ha-1(NPK) + FYM 10 ha-1 + Neem cake 5q ha-1 and minimum yield of (318.67 Kg/ha dry) when only manure @ FYM 10 ha-1 was applied in field. Hence, we conclude that the long pepper is an organic matter and fertilizer loving crop and application of higher levels of organic manures and fertilizers improved both plant and soil nutrient status.
