A field experiment was carried out at Organic Research Farm, Karguan ji, Department of Horticulture, Institute of Agricultural Sciences, Bundelkhand University, Jhansi during rabi season of 2020-21 to study the organic manures and biofertilizers on growth, yield and quality of broccoli cv. KTS-1. Application of 33 per cent each of poultry manure + PSB + Azotobacter (T8) resulted in highest growth and yield attributing parameters, curd yield and quality parameters of broccoli. The plant height 40.95 cm, number of leaves 32.53 plant-1, leaf length 41.17 cm, leaf breadth 33.18 cm, stem diameter 5.03 cm, curd diameter 12.08 cm, curd weight 310 g and curd yield 110 q ha-1 were recorded in T8. T.S.S. 8.91 0Brix, vitamin-C 90.52 mg 100 g-1, acidity 0.28 per cent, reducing sugars, 3.99 per cent, non-reducing sugars 0.72 per cent and total sugars 3.88 per cent were also found to be more in treatment T8. The second best treatment was T6 having 33 per cent each of mustard cake + PSB + Azotobacter, which produced 98.21 q ha-1 curd. The curd yield of the control treatment was only 62 q ha-1.
