An investigation was carried out to evaluate the effect of different organic manures on growth, yield
and quality attributes in taro at ICAR Research Complex for NEH Region, Umiam, Meghalaya during
April to October 2011under rainfed condition. Seven treatment combinations were evaluated on taro
cultivar BCC-1 in randomized complete block design with three replications.The highest petiole length,
number of cormels, length, diameter and weight of corms as well as cormel were recorded from the
treatment T3(vermicompost (1t /ha) + Full FYM (10t /ha) + 75% recommended dose of NPK) which
was statistically at par with T2(vermicompost (1t /ha) + Full FYM (10t /ha) + 50% recommended dose
of NPK). The highest yield (18. 47 t /ha) was also recorded in INM treatment T3closely followed by
T2(18.10t /ha). However, organic treatment T4(FYM (10 t /ha) + neem cake (1t /ha)) showed highest
dry matter (27.29%) and starch (17.06%) content.
