Abstract

Nepal is a mountainous country having an area of 1, 47, 181 square kilometer with predominantly an integrated agriculture practice. Realizing the possibilities of cattle excreta for agro-production this experiment is design to compare the production of tomato in application of cattle Urine with different dilution level. Experimental plots were categorized into three types, a Common farmer practice plot, Treatment (with different dilutions of cows urine) plots and Chemical used plots. Tomato production analysis was done with three replications. Urine water dilution level of 1:2, 1:4, 1:6, 1:8, and 1:10 is sprayed in the plots. Plants height and yield was measured, soil sampling and NPK in Urine was analyzed, and disease and infestations are observed finally Cost-Benefit analyses are done. The most recommendable urine water dilution level for higher yield of tomato production from this research is found as 1:8.
