Abstract

The field experiment was carried out during Zaid season 2022 at experimental field of Crop Research Farm, Department of Agronomy, Naini Agricultural Institute, Sam Higginbottom University of Agriculture, Technology Sciences, Prayagraj and Uttar Pradesh, India. In the Experiment, The soil of plot was sandy loam in texture, nearly neutral in soil reaction (pH7.3), (EC 0.26 Ds/m), low in organic carbon (0.48%), available nitrogen (230 kg/ha), available phosphorus (13.60 kg/ha) and available potassium (215.4 kg/ha). The treatments  includes Sulphur (20, 30, 40 kg/h), Boron (0.2%) and Zinc (0.5%) along with control. The experiment was done in Randomized Block Design with ten treatments each replicated thrice. The findings showed that Yield attributes namely kernels/pod (2.27), pods/plant (43.33), kernel yield (2.58 t/ha), pod yield (2.54 t/ha) and haulm yield (6.29 t/ha), Maximum gross return (140970.00 INR/ha), net return (89974.00 INR/ha) and B C ratio (1.76) were highest in the treatment 9 [40 Kg/ha Sulphur + 0.2 % Boron + 0.5 % Zinc].
