Description :
In the present study a fruit class vegetable carrot was grown using vermicompost, normal soil
& manure prepared from kitchen waste 85 was studied for its sensory characteristics. Recipe
was formulated & evaluated. There trial (Tl, T2 & T3) were conducted for testing of various
sensory characteristics such as appearance, colour, texture, test, flavor & acceptability. For
this purpose five human panelists were coded as T1, T2, T3, T4 & T5. Recipes were served
fresh based on mean values results were tabulated & analyzed statistically by applying one way
annova & scheffs test. It was observed that kitchen waste manure variety significantly scored
maximum than normal soil vermicompost. It shows highly significant difference in both
varieties when compared on organoleptic characteristics. Thus it was concluded that kitchen
waste manure was highly appreciated & more superior in all sensory characters over normal
soil, which was statistically proved. Thus by using organic manure & vermicompost for growing
vegetables, we can save our ecosystem & health by consuming these fresh organic vegetable.
