  • Abstract:
  • A field experiment was conducted during rabi, 2023-24 on clayey soil at the Agronomy Farm, Department of Agronomy, School of Agricultural sciences, G.H. Raisoni University, Saikheda, Chhindwara (M. P.), to study the effect of varieties on growth, yield and quality of late sowing mustard in Chindwara district (brassica juncea linn czern & coss) under irrigated condition. The experiment laid out in RBD design with three replications consisted seven treatments. Among the varieties tested, T3-Pusa agrani recorded significantly higher growth parameters, yield attributes, yield of mustard, and economics compared to other combinations. Significantly higher plant height (157.30 cm), number of branches per plant (7.30), plant dry weight (23.23 g/plant), siliquae per plant (292.32), grains per siliquae (15.56). However, higher grain yield (2122 kg/ha) and stover yield (6800 kg/ha) were obtained with significantly higher gross returns (Rs. 62275/ha), net return (Rs. 35275/ha), benefit cost ratio (2.18) and also oil content (38.41%) and oil yield (694.05 kg ha-1) compared to other treatments.
