Abstract:
The field experiment was conducted during rabi 2020 at Central Crop Research Farm, Department of Agronomy, SHUATS, Prayagraj (U.P.). To study the “Study on Nitrogen and Sulphur on Growth and Yield of Yellow Mustard (Synapis alba)”. There were 9 treatments each replicated thrice. The treatment consists of 3 levels of nitrogen viz. N₁ (60 kg ha^-1), N₂ (70 kg ha^-1), N₃ (80 kg ha^-1) and 3 levels of Sulphur viz. S₁ (20 kg ha^-1), S₂ (30 kg ha^-1) and S₃ (40 kg ha^-1) as basal application, whose effect was observed on mustard. The experiment was laid out in Randomized Block Design. The results revealed that growth parameters viz. plant height (147.37cm) at 100 DAS, dry weight (32.89 g/plant) and crop growth rate (7.82 g/m²/day) at 80-100 DAS were recorded superior with the application of Nitrogen 80 kg/ha + Sulphur 30 kg/ha. As well as significantly maximum Yield parameters viz. number of silique/plant (143.07), length of silique (7.08 cm), number of seeds//silique (36.20), test weight (3.00 g), stover yield (4.02 t/ha) and seed yield (1.78 t/ha) were recorded superior with the application of Nitrogen 80 kg/ha + Sulphur 30 kg/ha.
