A field experiment was conducted during Kharif, 2017 at dry land farm, S.V.Agricultural college, Tirupati to study the influence of natural liquid organics on yield and seed quality attributes of blackgram. The experiment was conducted in RBD with 10 treatments (Recommended dose of fertilizers (RDF), RDF+ Seed treatment with water, Seed treatment with beejamrutha, soil application of ghanajeevamrutha, foliar spray of jeevamrutha, foliar spray of panchagavya, soil application of ghanajeevamrutha+ foliar spray of jeevamrutha, soil application of ghanajeevamrutha+ foliar spray of panchagavya and integrated use of above mentioned organics) with 3 replications. Significantly higher seed yield and yield attributes were recorded with RDF and RDF with seed treatment with water in blackgram. However, combined application of natural organics recorded on par seed yield with the two inorganic treatments. Post-harvest seed quality attributes viz., carbohydrate content, protein content, total sugars did not differ significantly among different treatments. Significantly higher catalase and superoxide dismutase activities of seed were found in the treatments RDF and seed treatment with water along with RDF followed by combined organic application treatment.
