Abstrakt: The investigations on the effect of silkworm pupal residue biosoft descent (SPRBD) as nutrient source on growth and yield parameters of tomato crop witnessed the higher growth and yield parameters in T4 (SPRBD @ 4% + T8 - Recommended dose of fertilizer + FYM/ha/year) at all the stages of plant growth compared to control. The highest growth parameters like plant height (58.60, 86.13 and 96.20 cm), number of branches per plant (15.33, 26.00 and 28.67), number of flowers per plant (32.67, 69 and 87.67), stem girth (1.67, 1.83 and 2.17cm) recorded on 30, 60 and 90 days after planting, respectively in T4 (SPRBD @ 4% + T8 - Recommended dose of fertilizer + FYM/ha/year). Whereas, highest shoot length (78 cm) and root length (46.17 cm) was noticed at 45 days after planting. Significantly highest Shoot weight (173.10 g), root weight (10.17 g) and total biomass per plant (37.23 g) was yielded at harvest stage. The yield parameters like total number of fruits (50.17), fruit weight( 50.50 g) and fruit yield per plant (4.27 kg) exhibited highest in T4 (SPRBD @ 4% + T8 ) as well compared to control.
