Abstract
The present study has been made to evaluate the impact of treated and untreated distillery effluent from M/s Devans Modern Breweries Ltd. Talab Tillo, Bohri, Jammu on seed germination, growth parameters and yield of Bitter Gourd (Momordica charantia L. var. Jaunpuri Super Special). From the analysis of data and the impact of distillery effluent on various quantitative morphological features of Momordica charantia, it can be concluded that the Untreated Distillery Effluent is detrimental for the growth of plants whereas Treated Distillery Effluent without dilution is also harmful for agriculture.
