Treatments combinations consisted of three Mustard varieties viz. V1, V2, and V3 (V1- Kranti, V2- RH-749 and V3- Maya) and
four Sulphur levels S0, S1, S2 and S3 (S0-0, S1-20, S2-40 and S 3-60 ha-1
). The soil of the experimental farmer’s field was silty
loam in texture with low organic carbon (0.35%) and nitrogen (211.60 kg ha-1
) and medium in phosphorus (16.20 kg ha-1
) and
potassium (209.0 kg ha-1
). The Mustard varieties were sown at the rate of 3.0 kg seed ha-1 in lines at 45 cm apart and 4-5cm depth
by seed drill on 23th October during 2017. The growth characters viz., plant height (166.59 cm.), leaf area index (4.35), dry matter
accumulation (49.51 g plant-1
) and number of branches plant-1
(24.79) significantly more with dose of sulphur up to 60 kg ha-1
.
The variety RH-749 produced higher value of plant height (162.42 cm.), leaf area index (4.24), dry matter accumulation (48.27
gplant-1
) and number of branches plant-1
(25.42) The Stover yield (66.15), and seed yield (25.71), of mustard were significantly
increased with increasing dose of sulphur up to 60 kg S ha-1
which was at par with 40 kg S ha-1
and significantly superior over 0
and 20 kg S ha-1
.The variety RH-749 produced higher value of stover yield (64.67), Seed yield (25.07) which was significantly
higher to Kranti and Maya. The higher oil and protein content in seed was recorded with the application of 60 kg S ha-1
which
was significantly superior over control and at par with 40 kg S ha-1
.
