Abstract: Objective of a field experiment entitled ‘‘A Studies on response of different levels of F.Y.M. and Vermi-compost on yield and quality of maize (Zea mays L.) Under chitrakoot condition.’’ Was conducted Agricultural Research farm Rajaula during kharif season 2016 to find out the economics of the opted treatment. Maize contributes the maximum 40% among the cereal food crops in the global food production. The experiment was laid out in Randomized Block Design having 09 treatments T0 - 0% (control), T1 - 25% (F.Y.M.), T2 - 50% (F.Y.M.), T3 - 75% (F.Y.M.), T4 - 100%(F.Y.M.), T5 - 25% (Vermi-compost), T6 - 50% (Vermi-compost), T7 - 75% (Vermi-compost), T8 - 100%(Vermi-compost), comprising of organic manures (Farm yard manure and Vermi-compost) each treatment was replicated three times, making a total of 27 plots. Treatments were randomly arranged in each replication. Benefit Cost ratio was highest for T₈ followed by T₄. Treatment T₈ is superior for Vermi-compost application and T₄ was superior for FYM treatment.
