Abstract: 

Organic farming is a sustainable faming system that produces healthy crops and livestock without damaging the environment. It avoids the use of artificial chemical fertilizers and pesticides, relying instead on developing a healthy and fertile soil and growing a mixture of crops. In this investigation, the prepared (T1-Layered agrowaste;T2-Mixed agrowaste;T3-Mixed fungal culture with agrowaste;T4-Mixed bacterial culture with agrowaste;T5-Mixed Fungi+bacterial culture with agrowaste;T6-Fungal culture with layered agrowaste;T7-Bacterial culture with layered agrowaste;T8-Fungi +Bacterial culture with layered agrowaste) compost by pit method and available (FYM-Farm Yard Manuar; VC-Vermicompost; PM-Poultary Manuar) composts were analyzed on five important leafy vegetables crops and evaluated the % rate of seed germination and vigour growth. Generally, T3, T4, T5, T6 and T7 types of prepared organic compost was observed more significant in % germination and vigour growth and available VC and FYM as well. As compered to available compost, better result was recorded in case of length of stem and root in T4 and T7 treatments. The highest percent (100%) seed germination were found in Rumex acetosa (T5 treatment), Spinacea oleracea (T7 treatment) and Trigonella foneum-graecum (T4 treatment) and available VC found 100% seed germination in case of Anethum graveolens and Coriandrum sativum. In case of other growth parameters prepared type of composts was observed significant result as compared to control and available compost.
