In order to vulgarize and promote moringa cultivation as a basic nutriment against malnutrition, the influence of organic manure was evaluated on the growth and development of different origins of Moringa oleifera in the Guinean savannah highlands of Cameroon. The experimental design was a split-plot with 3 replications. The experimental unit was 30 plants. The type of organic manure (composted dung, dried dung and control) and plant provenances (Far North, North and Adamawa) represented the main and secondary treatments respectively. Results showed an average germination rate of 76.53 ? 4.35% and a non-significant difference for both the type of organic manure and the provenances. Provenance has no significant influence (p˃0.05) on growth parameters. The fertilizers used significantly influence (p˂0.05) the growth parameters as well as the survival rate. Plants enriched with composted cow dung show the best height performance (26.63 ? 1.79 cm), neck diameter (7.11 ? 0.35 mm) and number of leaves (10.32 ? 0.39) at 105 days after sowing. Those treated with dried dung has a better survival rate (75.55 ? 9.72%).
