Abstract: The current study is named "Capsicum annuum L. var. Grossum: Impact of Organic and Inorganic Nutrients on Growth and Yield." conducted during Rabi-2023–24 at the Rama University Agricultural Research Farm in Mandhna, Kanpur, Uttar Pradesh. Three replications and a randomized block design were used for the experiment. The plant growth and production metrics were greatly increased by the addition of inorganic fertilizers (100% RDF, 125% RDF, 20 kg FeSO₄, and 20 kg ZnSO₄), organic nutrients (2.5 t/ha vermicompost and 2.5 t/ha FYM), and their combinations. The maximum plant height (99.51 cm), the number of branches at the harvest stage (51.47), the number of fruits per plant (10.82), the length of the fruit (cm) (7.81 cm), the average fruit weight (g) (65.12), the fruit yield plant-1 (kg) (0.71), and the fruit yield per hectare (265.66 q) were all significantly recorded in T₆ 100% RDF + 20 kg FeSO₄ + 20 kg ZnSO₄.
