A field experiment was conducted in the year 2010 and 2011 at SKUAST- K, Shalimar campus in complete randomized block design with three replications and sixteen treatments to study the effect of organic manures and inorganic nitrogen on growth and yield of kale var. acephala. Maximum improvement in plant height, plant spread, number of leaves and leaf weight per plant, weight of whole plant and leaf yield per hectare was recorded when 45 t FYM ha-1 along with 135 kg N ha-1 gave significantly higher growth and yield attributes but was at par with F30N90.
