Abstract:
Mustard is most important oil seed crop after cereals and pulses. The various factors like soil, biotic and abiotic factor lose the productivity and quality of mustard. The nutrients are one of the most important factors to increase the productivity in mustard. The phosphorus and sulphur are essential for all quality and yield attributes of mustard crop. Optimum fertilizer dose is used for better quality and yield of mustard. Phosphorus and sulphur supports to improve height of plants, number of major and minor branches/plant, no. of foliage/plant, no. of siliqua/plant, number of seeds/siliqua, siliqua length, number of seeds, oil concentration, oil content and quality, yield and growth parameters. Both phosphorus and sulphur are very important for root formation, plant growth and various quality parameters like amino acids, proteins and oil content respectively.
