An experiment was conducted under insect proof net to assess the impact of integrated nutrient management and fertigation levels on growth parameters of papaya cv. Arka Prabhath. The experiment was laid out in CRD with three replications and twelve treatments. Results indicated that crop growth such as plant height, girth, number of leaves and leaf petiole length were significantly higher in treatment containing 100 per cent RDF through Fertigation + Trichokavach (50 g plant–1) + Chitosan (20 g plant–1) + Seaweed extract (20 g plant–1) + Penicillium pinophilum (20 g plant–1) + Pseudomonas putidda (4 ml L–1) + Phosphoric acid (20 ml L–1 plant–1) + Salicylic acid (300 ppm) + Power plus (5 ml L–1) at compared to control.
