Three rates of organic wastes (SDH1) namely 6.18kg and 24 tree were added as mulch to mature guava trees, seven years old, grown at New Halfa Research Station to study their effects on growth, yield and fruit quality. Results showed that all organic wastes rate caused significant increase in tree heights compared to control, while stem diameters seemed to be unaffected. Significant increases in yield were noted comparing the treated trees with control and a higher yield observed at 16 kg/tree. Fruit quality measurement such as fruit diameter, fruit weight and fruit juice sugar contents tend to remain more or less constant and no significance was noted between the treated trees and the control
