The Ricebean has garnered attention as an underutilized crop due to its significant global food contributions and its emerging potential as a valuable legume with a remarkable nutritional profile, boasting over 25% protein content and essential amino acids. A field experiment conducted from 2019 -2021 focused on green manuring with a legume crop, ricebean, on the same field. The study aimed to assess growth, yield, and quality parameters. Treatment T?, incorporating a combination of green manure and poultry manure at a rate of 0.7 tons per hectare along with 100 % RDF (Recommended dose of fertilizers), demonstrated superior performance in ricebean resulted in higher seed yields, enhance seed quality, maintain soil health, and optimize financial returns for farmers in the foothill conditions of Nagaland
