Influence of sulphur and plant growth regulators on yield and economics of mustard

The field experiment titled “Influence of Sulphur and Plant growth regulators on yield and economics of Mustard” was conducted during Rabi, 2023 at Crop Research Farm, Department of Agronomy, Naini Agriculture Institute, SHUATS, Prayagraj, Uttar Pradesh. The experiment was laid out in Randomized Block Design with ten treatments which are replicated thrice with three levels of application of Sulphur 30, 40, 50 kg/ha and three levels of application of Plant growth regulators, Gibberellic acid -50 ppm, Naphthalene acetic acid -75 ppm, Salicylic acid- 100 ppm and control. Results revealed that higher Grain yield (2.19t/ha), Stover yield (6.48t/ha) with application of sulphur 50 kg/ha and salicylic acid-100 ppm in mustard crop. And maximum gross return (1,06,896.66 INR/ha), net returns (66,824.00 INR/ha) and B:C ratio was (1.66) wereobtainedbytheapplicationofSulphurattherate50kg/ha along with Salicylic acid 100 ppm.
