ABSTRACT Sustainable bitter gourd production requires optimising the combined organic and inorganic nutrient management. Hence, a field experiment was conducted to evaluate impact of amendments on productivity, quality, use efficiency, soil microbial activity, health, profitability. Treatments were T 1 : control, 2 recommended dose N-P-K-S-Zn-B at 120-40-85-20-3-2 kg · ha −1 , 3 5 t vermicompost (VC) + 50% NPKSZnB, 4 2.5 poultry manure (PM) VC 75% 6 PM 7 cow dung (CD) 8 CD 9 25% NPKSZnB. Integrating with NPKSZnB fertiliser (T ) significantly boosted fresh fruit yield (13.1 ), 192% higher over larger fruits, count, greater vine length. Treatment also excelled in vitamin C (77.6 mg 100 g β-carotene (122 mcg protein (18.1%), moisture content (93.4%), total soluble solids (4.0°Brix), alongside enhanced uptake, robust populations, economic returns (4552 US$ ). exhibited highest agronomic removal efficiencies for key nutrients. Therefore, application offer promising approach sustainable production. This method not only boosts quality but improves health minimises environmental risks through reducing chemical use.
