The present study was carried out during 2019-20 to assess the effect of organic sources of nutrients on growth,
physiological parameters and productivity of Indian mustard. Seven treatments,viz. Jivamrat @ 500 litre/ha, Azotobacte,
FYM @ 5 t/ha, Jivamrat + Azotobacte, Jivamrat + FYM @ 5 t/ha, Jivamrat + Azotobacte + FYM @ 5 t/ha and control
were accommodated in a randomized block design with three replications. Result revealed that the growth parameters
including plant height, number of leaves, primary and secondary branches were recorded maximum with Jivamrat + FYM
+ Azotobacte. Further results also revealed that the physiological parameters including leaf area index and SPAD reading
were recorded maximum with Jivamrat + FYM + Azotobacte. Seed yield and stover yield were also recorded the highest
with Jivamrat + FYM + Azotobacte. Therefore, it can be concluded that combine application of Jivamrat @ 500 litre/ha
and FYM @ 5 t/ha with Azotobacte was found to be more productive in semi-arid regions of Rajasthan.
