Abstract

The field experiments were carried out during Rabi seasons of 2021-22 and 2022-23 at Student’s Instructional Farm (SIF), Chandra Shekhar Azad University of Agriculture & Technology, Kanpur, to study the Effect of FYM, Vermicompost and Fertility levels on growth and yield of Indian Mustard (Brassica juncea L.). The results revealed that at 30, 60, 90 & 120 DAS the treatment (T14) 100% RDF+ 50% N through Vermicompost recorded significantly higher plant height, Leaf Area Index, Crop Growth Rate and Relative Growth Rate followed by 100% RDF + 50% N through FYM (T10) in both year and pooled also. The highest Grain Yield (24.63 q. ha-1) with highest Harvest Index (28.40 %) was recorded over treatment (T14) 100% RDF + 50% N through Vermicompost of mustard followed by Grain Yield (23.70 q. ha-1) with Harvest Index (27.70 %) of 100% RDF + 50% N through FYM (T10) in both year and pooled also.
