Field experiments were carried out during Kharif season of 2015 and 2016 to study the influence
of FYM, inorganic fertilizers and bio-fertilizers on fresh herbage yield, quantity and quality of
essential oil of sweet basil (Ocimum basilicum). Nine treatments with three replications were
adopted in a randomized block design to find out the effect of different levels of N applied through
FYM (100, 75 and 50% of the recommended N along with and without bio-fertilizers),
recommended dose of NPK (160:80:80 kg ha-1), recommended FYM (10 t ha-1) + NPK (160:80:80
kg ha-1) and control (recommended FYM (10 t ha-1) on fresh herbage and oil yield, oil content
and oil quality of sweet basil (Ocimum basilicum L.)). Pooled results revealed that application of
recommended FYM (10 t ha-1) along with recommended NPK (160:80:80 kg ha-1) recorded the
highest fresh herbage yield (39.95 and 19.37 t ha-1), essential oil content (0.48 and 0.45%) and
essential oil yield (199.7 and 107.58 kg ha-1) in the main crop and ratoon, respectively. With
respect to oil quality, bio-fertilizer has a good impact on oil quality, that highest percentage of
Methyl chavicol was recorded with application of recommended FYM (10 t ha-1) + recommended
N through FYM along with bio fertilizers in the main crop of 2016 (63.78%) and in the ratoon
(59.39 and 59.67%) of 2015 and 2016, respectively.
