Sesame is generally grown in traditional, low-input agriculture systems with low-yielding variety. Recent advancements in breeding have encouraged the modernization and mechanization of sesame cultivation. Nevertheless, there are only a few number of articles addressing the fertilization needs of both modern and traditional agricultural systems. In the field trail we determine the response of integrated nitrogen management on sesame. A field experiment was conducted to study the Combined effect of organic sources of manure with inorganic fertilizer to growth, yield and quality of sesame (Sesamum indicum L.) during Kharif season of 2022. Ten different combination of pig manure, poultry manure, farm yard manure (FYM) and vermicompost with recommended dose of nitrogen those are supply by urea were investigated in the study. In the field, randomized block design were used. Results showed that the application of 100% nitrogen was the most successful nitrogen fertilization strategy in treatment (T10) but this performed statistically at par with the 25% nitrogen through poultry manure and 75% nitrogen through urea in terms of growth, yield and quality of sesame. The research findings showed that the poultry manure can potentially replace at least 25% of the dose of urea.
