Field experiments were conducted during 2006–08 to study the effect of different organic manures in comparison to inorganic inputs on growth, yield, and quality attributes of capsicum (Capsicum annum L.) and garden pea (Pisum sativum L.). Application of poultry manure (5 tonnes/ha) + biofertilizer produced capsicum plant biomass and yield at par with integrated nutrient management (recommended NPK + farmyard manure@10 tonnes/ha + biofertilizer). Highest ascorbic acid content (25.23 mg/100 g) was recorded with integrated nutrient management, followed by poultry manure+ biofertilizer (19.26 mg/100 g) and combined use of farmyard manure + poultry manure + vermicompost + biofertilizer (18.83 mg/100 g). Minimum incidence of cercospora leaf spot (11.18%) was recorded in poultry manure + biofertilizer treatment, integrated nutrient management and vermicompost+ biofertilizer treatments. Significantly higher incidence of leaf blight of capsicum was observed in organic treatments in comparison to integrated nutrient management. Poultry manure + biofertilizer resulted in plant height, number of pods/plant, pod length, number of seeds/pod and yield of garden pea at par with integrated nutrient management. Significant change in physico-chemical properties of soil like bulk density, pH, organic carbon, available nitrogen and available phosphorus was observed in different treatments. Incidence of Fusarium root rot was lower in poultry manure + biofertilizer (11.42%) and FYM treatments (12.06%) compared to integrated nutrient management (46.75%). Highest B:C ratio was recorded with poultry manure+ biofertilizer for capsicum (35.4) and garden pea (14.3).
