Abstract
A present investigation was carried out during the Kharif Season of 2024 at Himalayan University farm, Jollang, Itanagar, to determine the response of Jeevamrut fertilizer on growth of black sesame (Sesamum indicum L.) The experiment was outlined in a Randomized Block Design (RBD) with nine treatments and three replication. The treatment included combination jeevamrut and Panchgavy. The study recorded significance difference among treatments in terms of plant height, leaf length, and number of leaf, dry weight and fresh weight of plant at 30, 60 and 90 DAS. The result revealed that the treatment T4 (Foliar Spray Jeevamrut @ 2.5% + Foliar Spray Panchgavya @ 5%) was found to be best treatment for obtaining maximum plant height, leaf length, number of leaf, dry weight and fresh weight, this indicating the combined effect of jeevamrut fertilizer on black sesame.
