Abstract: A field experiment was conducted during Rabi 2023-24 at the experimental farm of the model Organic Farm Department of Organic Agriculture and Natural Farming, Chaudhary Sarwan Kumar Himachal Pradesh Krishi Vishvavidyalaya, Palampur, Kangra, Himachal Pradesh. The experiment consisting of eleven treatment combinations which was laid out in Randomized Block Design with three replications. Surbhi variety of the linseed was used in the experiment. It was found that among the different treatments higher plant height (66.0 cm) at harvest, dry matter accumulation (371.2 gm-2), higher crop growth rate (3.24 g m-2 day-1) at 150 DAS, the lowest days taken to 50% flowering and Days taken to physiological maturity, seed yield (11.16 q ha-1) and straw yield of (27.51 q ha-1) was recorded with the application of 50% FYM + 50% vermicompost to supply 100% of recommended N (T10). Whereas, the lowest plant height (44.9 cm), dry matter accumulation (252.1 gm-2), lowest crop growth rate of 2.20 g m-2 day-1 seed yield (7.26 q ha-1) and straw yield (19.00 q ha-1) in absolute control (T11).
