Abstract

A field experiment was conducted during Rabi 2021 at Crop Research Farm, Department of Agronomy, SHUATS, Prayagraj (U.P) to evaluate the effect of boron levels and row spacing on growth and yield of mustard (Brassica juncea L.). The soil of experimental plot was sandy loam in texture, nearly neutral in soil reaction (pH 7.2). The experiment was laid out in a randomized block design with nine treatments with three replications. The treatments comprising of different levels of boron and row spacing whose effect was observed in mustard. The results obtained that the application of boron @3 kg/ha plus row spacing of 30cm recorded significantly maximum plant height (192.53 cm), plant dry weight (36.95 g/plant), number of siliquea/plant (314.47), test weight (5.14g), number of seeds/siliquea (15.33), stover yield (4.61 t/ha), seed yield (2.48 t/ha). Therefore, treatment with application of boron @3 kg/ha long with row spacing of 30cm was more productive and can be recommended to farmers after further trails.
