Description An experiment was conducted to assess the economic feasibility of various levels of organic sources to the crop production of coriander (Coriandrum sativum L.) during the Rabi season of 2011-12 at the main experiment station, Department of Vegetable Science, Narendra Dev Universit7y of Agriculture and Technology, Narendra Nagar (Kumarganj), Faizabad (U.P.). The experiment was initiated with eight treatments T1 (FYM 100 % @ 10 t/ha), T2 (vermicompost 100 % @ 5 t/ha), T3 (FYM 50 % 5t/ha) + vermicompost 50 per cent (2.5t/ha), T4 (FYM 25 % 2.5t/ha) + vermicompost 75 per cent (3.75t/ha), T5 (FYM75 % 7.5t/ha) + vermicompost 25 per cent (1.25t/ha), T6 (of FYM @ 5 t/ha + Azospirillum @ 1.5 kg/ha), T7 (Recommended dose of fertilizers 60:30:30 kg NPK/ha) and T8 (control). From over all experimental results it is concluded that higher economic return (63030.00 Rs./ha) was obtained from higher coriander yield (14.58 q/ha) with the application of better combination of organic sources. i.e. T4 (Application of FYM 25 % 5 t ha-1) + vermicompost 75 per cent (3.75 t ha1) treatment. Thus, the present findings have practical utility in successful cultivation of seed spices particularly coriander whereas, the highest cost: benefit ratio (1: 2.82) has been calculated by the use of T6 (Application of FYM @ 5 t/ha. + Azospirillum @ 1.5 kg/ha) treatment.
