After conducting the field experiments, based on primary data as yield obtained from present research work and with the help of questionnaire through personal interview from farmers, cost benefit analysis on out come in field experiment for Bitter Guard crop was carried out. Five treatments were taken as vermicompost (T1) @ 2.6 t/ha, NADEP compost (T2) @ 6.25 t/ha, pit compost (T3) @ 6.25 t/ha, chemical fertilizers (T4) @ 100:50:50 Kg of NPK/ha control (T5) were applied to plot area (1 hector) with recommended dose of fertilizers. The average yield per hectare of Bitter Guard were obtained  8381 kg,  6026 kg,  4450 kg,  7698 kg and  8,361 kg  in the treatment T1, T2, T3, T4 and T5 respectively. The cost of cultivation per hectare for of Bitter Guard crop have been estimated to be Rs 1,25,709 in treatment T1, Rs 1,17,165 in treatment T2, Rs 1,07,972 in treatment T3, Rs 1,08,886 in treatment T4 and Rs 1,07,837 in treatment T5. The profit comes out to be Rs 1,67,626 in treatment T1, Rs 93,745 in treatment T2, Rs 47,778 in treatment T3, Rs 1,60,544 in treatment T4 and Rs 1,84,798  in the treatment T5. Gross return Rs was higher than cost of cultivation therefore profit obtained in all the treatments were positive. The input output ratios were about 2.33, 1.80, 1.44, 2.47 and 2.71 in the treatment T1, T2, T3, T4 and T5 respectively. Control treatment (T5) was definitely an encouraging maximum return as compared to remaining fertilizer treatments in three months.
