Abstract

A field experiments was conducted during rabi season of 2008–09 and 2009–10 at Agricultural Research Farm of Raja Balwant Singh College, Bichpuri, Agra to study Effect of sulphur and zinc levels on mustard (Brassica juncea). The treatments consisted of four levels of sulphur (0, 20, 40 and 60 kg/hal and four levels of zinc (0.0, 3.0, 5.0 and 8.0 kg/hal applied through elemental sulphur and zinc chloride in factorial randomize block design replicated thrice. Application of 40 kg S/ha and 5.0 kg Zn/ha significantly increased seed and stover yield and yield attributes characters. Oil content and total uptake of N, P, K, S and Zn increased significantly up to 60 kg S/ha and 5.0 kg Zn/ha. Highest net return and benefit cost ratio were recorded with the application of 40 kg S/ha and 5.0 Kg Zn/ha.
