Abstract

The growth of tomato plants in three kinds of treat ments along with the standard control was measured. The different treatments were of standard chemical spra y, tobacco waste and neem waste at an interval of 1 5 days. The parameters considered for the study were survival p ercentage, fresh biomass and yield. The tobacco and neem waste utilization was found to be more economical with th e tobacco waste treatment having maximum effects resulting in an average survival of 96.32%. The maximum fresh biomass was also noted to be 249 g/plant and the yiel d was found to be 0.49 T/ha. Our results demonstrate that , amongst all the three kinds of treatments that we used, use of tobacco promote better productivity of tomato plant s.
