The experimental findings were revealed that the treatment showed better response to plant growth and its attributes and quality. However, maximum yield (225.26q/ha) were obtained with the application of T7-Absolute control with recommended dose of NPK (150:100:120 kg/ha) package of practices. The maximum specific gravity 1.07) recorded in T6 (FYM on N basis as per the recommended dose of all crops in the rotation. Plant protection measure may be taken through bio pesticide only). The maximum dry matter content of tubers (19.66%) was recorded in treatment T4-Crop residue incorporation + biofertilizers (Azotobacter and Phosphobacteria) + Vermicompost @ 5 t/ha + microbial culture to decomposed residues and minimum dry weight of tubers noted in Treatment T1 (18.46%) with application of crop residues incorporation during winter season. The maximum starch content (17.81%) of tuber was recorded in the T4 (Crop residue incorporation + biofertilizers (Azotobacter and Phosphobacteria) + Vermicompost @ 5 t/ha + microbial culture to decomposed residues). There was found most beneficial and feasible for cultivation of organic potato (Kufri Anand).
