Effects of different levels of npk and sulphur on mustard (Brassica juncea L.) Cv. Varuna, economics analysis

The field experiment was carried out at Research field of Department of Soil Science, Allahabad school of Agriculture, During rabi season of 2014-15. The experiment was laid out in 3×3 factorial randomized block design with 9 treatments in three replications. It indicates that application of N P K and Sulphur increased the total cost of cultivation of Mustard markedly. The maximum total cost of cultivation (Rs.34811.53 ha-1) and the minimum net return (Rs.23151.5 ha-1) was computed with application of 25 kg N ha-1, 40 kg P ha-1, 40 kg K ha-1 and 100 g Sulphur ha-1 while the maximum net return Rs. invested (1.93) was recorded with the application of 25 kg N ha-1, 40 kg P ha-1, 40 kg K ha-1 and 100 g Sulphur ha-1. There should be a chance of better yield and net income, suggested all operations will be performing timely for this crop, because time is a very important factor and play great role for greater yield and its quality, before time or after time any operations in the field of agriculture production and quality will goes down. However, since these finding are based on one-year experiment and therefore, further research may be conducted to substantiate it under Allahabad agro climatic conditions.
