Effect of various sources and doses of Sulphur on yield and economics of Indian mustard (Brassica juncea L.)

A field experiment was conducted during Rabi season 2023-24 at Crop Research centre-1, ITM University, Gwalior, M.P., Effect of Various Sources and Doses of Sulphur on yield and economics of Indian Mustard (Brassica juncea L.). The experiment comprised of ten (10) treatment combinations laid out in factorial randomized block design with three replications. The Main plot consisted of three sources of sulphur (Gypsum, SSP, and Bentonite S) and the sub plots include three doses of sulphur (20, 40 and 60 kg S ha-1). Results revealed that Among the different sources of sulphur, gypsum fetched the highest yield, net realization and benefit: cost ratio. Significantly higher yield viz., seed yield and stover yield were recorded with the application of T3 40 kg S through gypsum recorded grain yield (1721 kg ha-1), stover yield (4906 kg ha-1), biological yield (6627 kg ha-1) and harvest index (25.97%) and along with maximum values of gross return (Rs. 118209 ha-1), net return (Rs. 86400 ha-1) and benefit cost ratio (2.76) and lowest results record in control.
