Efficacy Of Integrated Nutrient Management On Growth And Yield Of Mustard (Brassica Juncea L.)

Abstract

A field experiment was conducted at Crop Research Centre (CRC), School of Agriculture, Uttaranchal University, Dehradun during rabi season 2021-22. Seven treatments were tested in three replicated Randomized Block Design. Results found that significantly better growth attributes, yield attributes and quality attributes was obtained with 75 per cent RDF + vermicompost + Sulphur over rest of the treatments. The maximum plant height (197.54cm), siliqua length (6.76 cm), test weight (6.26 g), seed yield (1690 kg/ha), oil content (35.76%), oil yield (604 kg/ha) and protein content (42.87 %) was received in treatment 75%RDF + vermicompost + Sulphur. The minimum plant height (153.85cm), siliqua length (5.03cm), test weight (3.24g), seed yield (1120kg/ha), oil content (33.2%), oil yield (371kg/ha) and protein content (29.03%) was received in Control (100%RDF).
