Abstract

A field experiment was conducted during season of 2010–11 and 2011–12 to study the performance of lentil (lens Culinaris Medikus) varieties to sources and levels of Sulphur. Among the sources of sulphur, gypsum proved significantly superior with respect to yield attributes (pods/plant and 1000 grain weight) grain and straw yield and harvest index yield and yield attributes increased significantly with increasing levels of S up to 30 kg/ha. Among the cultivars DPL 62 performed better than others in respect of yield.
