The experiment was laid out in RBD having three replications. The result revealed significantly highest Tss (11.28)0Brix, Total Sugar (8.89%), Reducing Sugar (6.85%), Non Reducing Sugar (2.39%), Acidity (0.63%) and Ascorbic Acid (41.90 mg/100g) in treatment T9 (Black polythene FYM 100%) followed by the treatment T10 (Black polythene vermi-compost 100%). Treatment T1 (the control), on the other hand, performed poorly in terms of all qualitative character’s.
