Abstract

Mustard (Brassica juneca (L.) Czern & Coss.) is one of the important oil seed crops in India. The adoption of high yielding varieties and judicious use of balanced fertilizers play an important role in increasing seed yield per hectare and oil content of mustard crop. Considering this aspect, an experiment was conducted at the College Agronomy Farm, Gujarat Agricultural University, Anand Campus, Anand with a view to find out the option dose of nitrogen and phosphorus with a suitable variety for higher seed yield with good quality of mustard during the year 1981-82.
