Abstract
The field experiment was carried out at the Crop Research Farm, Department of Agronomy, Sam Higginbottom University of Agriculture, Technology and Sciences, Prayagraj during Rabi season 2021-22 on Mustard crop. The experiment was performed in randomized block design with ten treatments and three replication. The soil of experimental plot was sandy loam in texture, nearly neutral in soil reaction (pH 7.1), low in organic carbon (0.36%), available N (171.48 kg/ha), available P (15.2 kg/ha) and available K (232.5 kg/ha). The maximum plant height (171.76 cm), primary branches (6.5/plant), secondary branches (16.20/plant), plant dry weight (43.43 g/plant) at 100 DAS in hybrid ADV 4029 was recorded. Maximum Crop growth rate (CGR) recorded at 40-60DAS (20.32 g/m2 /day), number of siliqua/plant (457.27), number of seeds/siliqua (13.55), test weight (4.73 g) and seed yield (2.51 t/ha) were observed in hybrid ADV 4029. In terms of economics, highest gross returns (Rs 136660.90/ha), net returns (Rs 87347.93/ha) and B:C ratio (1.77) were observed in hybrid ADV 4029.
