Abstract

FYM 5.0 t ha−1 + PSM + Azospirillum recorded improved growth characters, yield attributes, yields, quality parameters and economics of Mustard [Brassica juncea (L.) Czern.&Coss.]. Similarly the application of 80 kg N ha −1 significantly increased growth, yield attributes, yields, N, P, K and S uptake, oil content, oil yield, net return and B:C ratio over control and 40 kg N ha−1.

Keywords
