Abstract

Field experiments were conducted to Studies effect of sulphur, potassium and PSB on growth parameters, root characterstics and quality of mustard during rabi season of 2019-20 and 2020-21 at students instructional farm, Chandra Shekhar Azad University of Agriculture & Technology, Kanpur. The experiment consists of 9 treatments combinations in randomized block design with three replications. Mustard variety Varuna (T-59) was grown with the recommended agronomic practices. On the basis of results emanated from investigation it can be concluded that among the growth parameters viz. The maximum plant height (137.72 cm) and number of leaves (8.62) were recorded in the treatment T9 [K60 + S40 + PSB] during the second year (2020-21) of experimentation. Similarly among the root characterstics, maximum root depth (72.49 cm), no. of roots plant-1 (14.92) and dry weight of roots (28.37 g) were associated with the treatment T9 [K60 + S40 + PSB] during the second year (2020-21) of experimentation. Maximum oil content (38.65 %) and oil yield (841.80 kg ha-1) were recorded in the treatment T9 [K60 + S40 + PSB] during the second year (2020-21) of experimentation.
