The present investigation was carried out at Field Experimentation Centre, Department of Genetics and Plant Breeding, Sam Higginbottom University, Technology and Sciences, Prayagraj (UP) for “Effect of Panchagavya and Leaf Extracts of Moringa, Neem and Seaweed on Growth, Yield and Yield Attributing Traits of Spinach (Spinacia oleracea L) Variety-All Green”. The experiment was laid out in Randomized Block Design with thirteen treatments including control which were replicated thrice on spinach seed variety ‘All-Green’ were used to study under field conditions .The treatments were as follows, T0- Control, T1,T2,T3 – Panchagavya @ (3,5,7%) for 8Hrs, T4,T5,T6 – Neem leaf extract @ (3,5,7%) for 8hrs, T7,T8,T9 – Moringa leaf extract @(3,5,7%) for 8hrs, T10,T11,T12 – Seaweed liquid extract@ (2,4,6%) for 8hrs respectively. ANOVA given the significance difference among all treatments compared to control for all parameters under study. It is concluded from the present study that the seeds of Spinach variety – All Green treated with T10-Seaweed Liquid Extract@ 2% for 8hrs was recorded the highest Number of leaves(19), length of leaf (cm)(12.8), No. of seeds per plant(gm) (4.08), Number of seeds per plot (gm)(69.46), Biological yield per plant (g)(79.73), Harvest index(69.67) followed by T3 Panchagavya @ 7% for 8hrs producing number of leaves(18), length of leaf(cm)(11.2),No. of seeds per plant (gm) (3.71), Number of seeds per plot (gm)(63.05), Biological yield per plant (g)(73.56), Harvest index(65.10) which were highly significant at 5% level of significance.
