<br/><br/> This investigation was carried out to study the effect of some organic manures on growth, and chemical composition of pepper (Capsicum annuum, L.) in a sandy soil during 1999 and 2001 seasons. This investigation included 16 treatments ( NPK, cattle, chicken and compost containing 165 kg N/fed. and their combination). Treatments received NPK + chicken manure + compost at a rate of ( 113+1/3+113 ) increased plant height, number of leaves and stems as well as their fresh weight and increased concentration of N, P and K in leaves and stems. The same treatment increased total yield and physical properties "length, diameter, weight and flesh thickness" and chemical composition "ascorbic acid, acidity, carotiodies and T.S.S" of pepper fruits. Key words: Pepper, (Capsicum annuum, L), N fertilizer, Organic manure, Cattle, Chicken, Compost, Growth, Yield, Chemical composition.
