Abstract

A field experiment was conducted during the Rabi season of session 2023-24 at the Agricultural Research Farm, School of Agricultural Sciences and Technology, RIMT University, Mandi Gobindgarh, Punjab to study the “Effect of nitrogen and sulphur on growth, yield attributes and yield of Gobhi sarson (Brassica napus L.)”. The experiment consisted of nine treatment combinations with nitrogen and sulphur levels. The treatment consisted of three nitrogen levels (75,100 and 125 kg/ha) and three sulphur levels (15, 30 and 45 kg/ha) were tested in Factorial Randomized Block Design (FRBD) with three replications. Observations concerning growth parameters, yield attributes and yield of Gobhi sarson was recorded. The application of 125 kg N/ha+45 kg S/ha treatment had the highest values for growth characteristics plant population, plant height, number of branches/plant, chlorophyll content, yield characteristics (number of siliquae/plant, number of seeds/siliqua, siliqua length (cm), test weight), grain yield, straw yield, net return and B:C ratio over rest of the treatments

Keywords

Gobhi sarson, nitrogen, sulphur, growth parameters, yield attributes, yield and economics

Conclusion

Based on the one-year study on Gobhi sarson (Brassica napus L.), it may be concluded that, effect of nitrogen and sulphur was significantly better with treatment combination 125 kg N/ha +45 kg S/ha, in terms of growth attributes, yield attributes, yield and also performed economically well as compared to other treatments. The about treatment is recommended gives maximum profit to the farmers
