A field experiment was conducted in randomized block design (RBD) during Kharif season 2018-2019 to evaluate the effect of inorganic, organic and Zero Budget Natural Farming (ZBNF) on fifteen selected genotypes of adzuki bean for growth parameters. Significant differences in the plant height, number of branches, pods per plant, seeds per pod and seed yield were obtained in genotypes as well as different production systems (inorganic, organic and Zero Budget Natural Farming), whereas no significant difference were obtained in pod length. Simultaneously interaction effect was significant for plant height and seed yield whereas, there were no significant interaction obtained for number of branches per plant, number of pods, seeds per pod and pod length. The overall finding of this study indicated that Zero Budget Natural Farming production system can be used to achieve better growth and yield of adzuki bean.

Significant differences in the plant height, number of branches, pods per plant, seeds per pod and seed yield were obtained in genotypes as well as different production systems (inorganic, organic and Zero Budget Natural Farming), whereas no significant difference were obtained in pod length. Simultaneously interaction effect was significant for plant height and seed yield whereas, there were no significant interaction obtained for number of branches per plant, number of pods, seeds per pod and pod length. The overall finding of this study indicated that Zero Budget Natural Farming production system can be used to achieve better growth and yield of adzuki bean.
