The experiment was carried out at Horticultural Research Farm, Barajaguli, BCKV, Mohanpur, Nadia, West Bengal during the years 2016-17 and 2017-18. The rhizomes were planted during middle of May in 3.0 X 2.0 m plot at 30 X 25 cm spacing with three replications. Four organic manures (Farm yard manure, Poultry manure, Mustard cake and Vermicompost) with single (25t/ha, 1t/ha, 0.75 t/ha and 2.5 t/ha) and double (50 t/ha. 2t/ha, 1.5 t/ha and 5 t/ha) doses along with control which results in 9 treatment combinations were applied. The maximum plant height (94.55 cm), number of tillers/plant (5.73) and number of leaves/plant (12.16) were observed by application of Poultry manure @ 2 t/ha (T4). Highest yield/ha (32.88 t/ha) was also noticed in Poultry manure @ 2 t/ha (T4) followed by Mustard cake @ 0.75 t/ha (T5). The highest curcumin percentage (1.34 %) and oleoresin percentage (6.52 %) were noticed in Vermicompost @ 5 t/ha (T8) over control (0.48 % and 4.66 %) T9.
