Abstract: The experiment entitled response of organic manures on growth, yield, nutrients uptake of Potato and its impact on soil health was conducted at vegetable form of the Narendra Deva University of Agriculture and Technology Kumarganj, Ayodhya (U.P.). The experiment was laid out in randomized block design with three replication having seven treatment combination. The soil of the experimental field was silt loam having pH 8.2, EC 0.24(dSm-¹), organic carbon 0.3%, available N 138.9kg/ha, available P 13.5kg/ha and available K 268kg/ha Growth and yield of potato increased with conjunction use of organic and inorganic nitrogen in comparison to alone organic N. The mineralization of organic matter decrease of soil pH and increases organic carbon and fertility status of soil. There was found most beneficial and feasible for cultivation of organic potato.
