This study was conducted at a private farm in Zawia Libya during the winter of 2016/2017 to study the effect of organic fertilizer (decomposed sheep residues) on vegetative growth and sugar content (TDS) of raw, boiled and steam carrots. The results showed that the organic fertilizer of the decomposed sheep revealed significant effect on studied characteristics, except the diameter of the bulb where it was not affected. Steam whole and cut carrots have substantial effect on composition, generally increasing the content of total TDS (sugar content) in comparison with cut and whole boiled carrots. However, cut and whole boiled carrots have TDS content more than raw carrots.
