Abstract
An experiment was carried out to access banana verities response to macropropagation technique using different organic nutrients, among different combinations of panchagavya, jeevamrutha and vermiwash, minimum number of days for first bud emergence (17.83 days), highest plantlets produced per corm (7.79), plant height (29.33 cm), shoot girth (28.27 mm), leaf length (27.81 cm), leaf breadth (15.11 mm) and leaf area (323.93 cm²) of primary plantlets significantly highest in V1 (Grand Naine). Among the various treatments, the minimum number of days for first bud emergence (17.17 days), highest plantlets produced per corm (8.83), maximum plant height (25.58 cm), shoot girth (30.35 mm), leaf length (29.56 cm), leaf breadth (16.15 mm) and leaf area (363.22 cm²) of primary plantlets was observed in T7 (Panchagavya 5% + jeevamrutha 5% + vermiwash 25%) and observed that the minimum number of days for first bud emergence (14.83 days), highest plantlets produced per corm (10.17), plant height (31 cm), shoot girth (31.48 mm), leaf length (30.50 cm), leaf breadth (16.72 mm) and leaf area (391.97 cm²) of primary plantlets was found in V1T7 (Grand Naine treated with panchagavya 5% + jeevamrutha 5% + vermiwash 25%).

Organic Nutrients, Macropropagation of Banana, panchagavya, jeevamrutha
Conclusion
Based on current study “Influence of organic nutrients on macropropagation of banana” it can be concluded that, Grand Naine variety of banana responded best for macropropagation because number of plantlets produced in Grand Naine was found more than the Ney Poovan, Panchagavya 5 per cent, jeevamrutha 5 per cent and vermiwash 25 per cent was best combination for rapid multiplication of banana.
