The present experiment entitled Pre-Sowing Seed Treatment with Panchagavya,Beejamruth and Leaf Extract of Moringa and Neem on Growth, Yield and Yield Attributing Characters of Cowpea (Vigna unguiculata L.) cv-Bali265. with the aim to identify better pre-sowing treatment for cowpea. During Kharif, 2021, present trail was carried out at the field experimentation center of the Genetics and Plant Breeding, Naini Agricultural Institute, Sam Higginbottom University of Agriculture, Technology and Sciences, Allahabad. It has 13 priming treatments including Control on Cowpea seeds variety were used to study under field conditions. Field experiment was laid out in Randomized Block Design (RBD) with three replications respectively. T0- Control, T1 Moringa Leaves Extract 2% (8 hrs), T2 Moringa Leaves Extract 4% (8 hrs), T3 Moringa Leaves Extract 6% (8 hrs), T4 Neem Leaves Extract 2% (8 hrs), T5 Neem Leaves Extract 4% (8 hrs), T6 Neem Leaves Extract 6% (8 hrs), T7 Panchagavya 2% (8 hrs), T8 Panchagavya 4% (8 hrs), T9 Panchagavya 6% (8 hrs), T10 Beejamruth 2% (8 hrs), T11 Beejamruth 4% (8 hrs), T12 Beejamruth (8 hrs). To find out Influence of different seed treatment on growth, yield and seed quality parameters of cowpea showed that significant treatment on rate of field emergence, days to 50% flowering, plant height, number of primary branches, days to maturity, number of pods per plant, number of seeds per pod, 100 seed weight, seed yield per plant, seed yield per plot, biological yield, harvest index. Pre-sowing treatment which is concluded from the present study that the seeds of Cowpea (Variety – Bali 265) were treated with T9 Panchagavya 6% (8 hrs) enhanced the above-mentioned characters.
