“…The growth parameters of mustard might be increased due to essentiality of sulphur and zinc for growth and developments. The consequences of the current investigation are additionally in concurrence with the investigation of Indira et al [1]3, Rahangdale [14], Bhalavi et al [15], Mishra et al [16], Singh et al [4].…”

Field experiments were conducted to study the effect Zinc and Sulphur on growth parameters, yield components and yield of Mustard during rabi season of 2021-22 at students instructional farm, Chandra Shekhar Azad University of Agriculture & Technology, Kanpur. The experiment consist of 14 treatments combinations in factorial randomized block design with three replications consisted of 7 fertility levels (including sulphur and zinc) and two variatal factors (i.e. Rohini & Maya). Mustard varieties Rohini & Maya were grown with the recommended agronomic practices. On the basis of results emanated from investigation it can be concluded that among the growth parameters maximum plant height at harvest is 160.6 cm and 161.2 cm, maximum number of primary branches is 8.5 and 8.3 and secondary branches is 14.4 and 14.8 during both the years of experimentation are associated with the treatment T14[Var. Maya with Sulphur @900 ppm]. Similarly, among the yield components and productivity parameters maximum number of siliquae per plant, number of seed siliqua-1, 1000 test wt. (gm), grain yield (q ha-1), stover yield (q ha-1) was also found in the treatment T14 [Var. Maya with Sulphur @900 ppm] followed by treatment T11 [Var. Maya with ZnSo4 @1500] and treatment T7 [Var. Rohini with Sulphur @1500].

The Field experiment was carried out during rabi season of 2021-22 and 2022-23 at Students Instructional Farm, Chandra Shekhar Azad University of Agriculture & Technology, Kanpur. The experiment consist of 14 treatments combinations in factorial randomized block design with three replications consisted of 7 fertility levels (including sulphur and zinc) and two varietal factors (i.e. Rohini & Maya). Mustard varieties Rohini & Maya were grown with the recommended agronomic practices. On the basis of results emanated from investigation it can be concluded that among the metabolic studies the maximum chlorophyll content at pre and post anthesis are 46.70 and 48.88 SPAD were recorded in the treatment T14 [Var. Maya with Sulphur @900 ppm] during the first year (2021-22). Maximum rate of photosynthesis at pre and post anthesis are 25.97 and 33.29 µmole m-2/ s-1 respectively, during 1st years of experimentation were associated with the treatment T14 [Var. Maya with Sulphur @900 ppm]. Similarly during 2nd year of experimentation the maximum pre and post anthesis chlorophyll content (47.27 and 49.45 SPAD) and pre and post anthesis rate of photosynthesis (26.32 and 34.50 µmole m-2/ s-1) was found in the treatment T14 [Var. Maya with Sulphur @900 ppm]. Along with this, among the phenological studies minimum number of days taken to anthesis, number of days taken to 50 % flowering and number of days taken to maturity, was also found in the treatment T14 [Var. Maya with Sulphur @900 ppm].

“…Mustard is a member of the Cruciferae family which is known by other common names, such as Rai, Raya, or Laha. This plant is grown as a pure crop or intercrop and it is highly valued for its economic and nutritional benefits, due to the responsible various nutrients, including dietary fiber, vitamins, minerals, fats, proteins, carbohydrates, amino acids, ascorbic acid, and antioxidants (Rai et al, 2022). According to Singh et al, (2017), the growth and productivity of mustard are greatly influenced by the climate change during winter season.…”

This study aimed to investigate the impact of foliar application of sulphur on the yield of Brassica juncea, specifically Rohi Sarsoon cultivar. The study was conducted in Chak No. TDA 117 B Layyah, during the growing season of October 20, 2020, with four treatments designated as T1 (control), T2 (15 kg/ha), T3 (20 kg/ha), and T4 (25 kg/ha) of sulphur. The study used a Randomized Complete Block design with two replications for each treatment. The findings of this study suggest that the application of sulphur had a positive impact on the growth and yield of Brassica juncea. The application of sulphur significantly influenced the plant height, number of pods, and overall yield of Brassica juncea. Treatment T3 showed the maximum plant height, the highest no. of pods, and the highest yield of 1.6 kg/Marla, followed by T2 with a yield of 1.4 kg/Marla, T1 with a yield of 1.1 kg/Marla, and T4 with a yield of 0.9 kg/Marla. The study estimated the yield for each treatment in kg/ha, with T1 yielding 880 kg/ha, T2 yielding 1120 kg/ha, T3 yielding 1320 kg/ha, and T4 yielding 720 kg/ha. The results of this study provide insights into the effects of foliar use of sulphur and its impact on both the yield and quality of Brassica juncea, contributing to a better understanding of the cultivation of this important crop.
