Abstract

An experiment was carried out to study the influence of different manures prepared from common weed, Celosia argentea L. on the yield of spinach (Spinecia oleracea L.), a popular leafy vegetable. Use of Celosia manure enhanced productivity of spinach, wherein the application of Celosia vermicompost was more effective in increasing the yield of spinach.
