Response of Sulphur and Spacing on Growth and Yield of Toria (Brassica campestris L.)

A field experiment was conducted during Rabi season of 2022 at the Crop Research Farm, Department of Agronomy, Naini Agricultural Institute, Sam Higginbottom University of Agriculture, Technology And Sciences, Prayagraj (U.P.) India. To study the Response of Sulphur and Spacing on growth and yield of Toria. The treatments consist of Sulphur 15, 30, 45 kg/ha and Spacing 20×15, 20×20, 25×20 cm. There were 10 treatments each replicated thrice. The soil of experimental plot was sandy loamy in texture, nearly neutral in soil reaction pH (7.2) with EC-0.187 (dS/m), low in organic carbon (0.72%) available N (178.48 kg/ha), available P (27.80 kg/ha) and available K (233.24 kg/ha). Results revealed that the higher plant height (105.93 cm), higher plant dry weight (17.70 g), higher crop growth rate (13.8 g/m2/day), higher number of siliquae/plant (216.19), higher seeds/ siliquae (23.67), higher test weight (3.64 g), higher seed yield (1.76 kg/ha), higher stover yield (3.21 kg/ha) and higher harvest index (35.39%) were significantly influenced with application of Sulphur 45 kg/ha + Spacing 25×20 cm.

Growth and Yield of Rice (Oryza sativa L.) under Agro-climatic Zone of Prayagraj, India

During Kharif 2022, a field experiment was done on sandy loamy soil at Crop Research Farm, Naini Agriculture Institute, Department of Agronomy, Sam Higginbottom University of Agriculture, Technology and Sciences, Prayagraj. The experiment was designed in Randomised Block Design and replicated three times, using ten hybrids, R-205, R-210, R-212, R-218, R-242, R-248, R-256, R-300, R-305, and R-311. Results indicates that R-305 significantly enhanced the growth parameters Days to 50% Flowering (74.66 DAT), Days to maturity (106.93 DAT), Filled grains/panicle (175.82), Unfilled grains/panicle (48.39), and Grain yield/hill (28.82 g/ha) in the field trial. R-305 also had the highest gross return (INR 200625/ha), net return (INR 151579/ha), and B:C ratio (3.09). R-311 had the shortest amount of Days to 50% flowering (68.00 DAT), Days to maturity (92.71 DAT), and unfilled grains/panicle (27.25). It was determined that the hybrid R-305 produced the highest grain yield. It also achieved the highest gross return, net return, and B:C ratio.
