The current exploration is being fetched out to evaluate the consequence of dairy effluent on morphological aspect and biochemical constituents in Moth bean (Vigna aconitifolia (Jacq.) Marechal). For this, experimentation work dairy effluents were amassed from the outlet of milk processing plants. The diverse concentrations used for the effluent were Control (normal water), 5, 25, 50, 75 and 100%. The growth parameters viz., shoot length (SL), roots length (RL), number of leaves (NL), total leaf area (TLA), fresh weight (FW) and dry weight (DW), and the biochemical issue like viz., chlorophyll ‘a’, chlorophyll ‘b’, total chlorophyll, carotenoid, reducing, non-reducing sugar, total sugars, starch, amino acid, and protein content were analysed and tabulated at 30th days after sowing (DAS). As stated by the investigational results obtained all the morphological strictures, biochemical elements, were establishing to enhance at 5% concentrations of dairy effluent and drop off in 50% effluent concentration. So these outcomes imitate that the dairy effluent is noxious nature to moth bean. Thus the dairy effluent is exceptionally alkaline in environment and contains gigantic amounts of suspended solids and dissolved solids consequent in soaring of BOD and COD and other enormous chemical constituents.
