A field experiment was conducted to compare the relative advantages of farmyard manure (0 and 20 t/ha), nitrogen (0, 25, 50 and 75 kg N/ha) and plant spacings (recommended i.e. solid row, 10 cm and 15 cm) in terms of yield and quality on coriander (Coriandrum sativum L.) during rabi of 2005-06 on loamy sand soil. The experiment was laid out in split-plot design having four replications along with 24 treatments consisting of farmyard manure and nitrogen in main plots as well as three levels of plant spacings in sub-plots with row spacing of 30 cm. The application of 20 t/ha FYM produced significantly higher seed yield of 9.8 q/ha and oil yield of 1.83 l/ha over control, whereas essential oil content of seed was not affected significantly with application of FYM. Application of 75 kg N/ha gave significantly higher seed yield of 10.73 q/ha over 25 kg N/ha, control but at par with 50 kg N/ha. The maximum essential oil yield of 2.08 l/ha under application of 75 kg N/ha which was significantly higher than that all other levels. But the seed yield and essential oil yield due to application of 25 kg N/ha and 50 kg N/ha statistically at par. Among the plant spacing tested, the highest seed yield of 14.29 q/ha and oil yield of 2.53 l/ha were obtained at recommended plant spacing (solid row), which was significantly higher than those of 10 and 15 cm plant spacing. However, essential oil content was maximum at 15 cm plant spacing which was significantly superior over recommended plant spacing but at par with 10 cm plant spacing. The chemical constituents of essential oil like linalool, nonpolar compound and geraniol content decreased with increase dose of farmyard manure. The content of linalool and geraniol increased and the content of non polar compounds decreased with increase dose of nitrogen. With respect to plant spacing, linalool content was highest with recommended plant spacing than those of 10 cm and 15 cm plant spacing. Due to application of 10 cm plant spacing the content of non polar compounds were maximum than those of recommended plant spacing and 15 cm plant spacing. The difference in refractive index and specific gravity of essential oil were statistically insignificant under different FYM, nitrogen levels and various plant spacing.
