Application of 60 kg P2C!,ha - through single superphosphate with 50 kg Sha through gypsum as full basal gave the maximum y~eld, oil and protein contents, which was on a par with single superphosphate @ 60 kg P20,ha full basal. Full - -?.- topdressing of phosphatic fertilizer and gypsum 60 days after sowing gave significantly lower yield than its conventional basal application.
