Abstract:
An experiment was conducted at College of Agriculture, Pune during kharif, 2018. The experiment was laid out in split plot design with four fertilizer levels as main plot treatments viz., (50:00:00, 50:10:10, 50:15:15 and 50:20:20NPK kg ha^-1) and four sulphur levels as subplot treatments viz., 0 kg S ha^-1, 10 kg S ha^-1, 20 kg S ha^-1 and 30 kg S ha^-1 in variety AKT-101. There were sixteen treatment combinations replicated three times. The soil was clayey in texture with pH 7.7 indicating slightly alkaline in reaction. The results revealed that the significantly higher seed and straw yields, as well as quality parameters were obtained at application of fertilizer level 50:20:20 NPK kg ha^-1 and sulphur level 30 kg ha^-1.
