The present study evaluated the physicochemical characteristics of poultry manure vermicompost (PMV) using Eisenia foetida in different proportions: Control (50% soil + 50% cow dung), T1 (50% PM + 50% soil), and T2 (50% PM + 25% soil + 25% leaves). The effect of these fertilizers on the growth of tomato, brinjal, and chilli plants was assessed at field level. The results indicated that E. foetida enhanced the quality of PMV by increasing the levels of total nitrogen, total phosphorus, total potassium, and pH, and decreasing the organic carbon content. The earthworm biomass was highest in T2, followed by T1.
