Year: 2024
Type: article
Abstract: The present study aims to study the Response of date of sowing and varieties on growth and yield of mustard (Brassica juncea L.) under humid climatic condition. The experiment was conducted with (FRBD) design having three replications and nine treatments combinations, comprising two factors with three dates of sowing viz., D1: (19th November), D2: (3rd December) and D3: (17th December) and three varieties viz., V1: (GM-3), V2: (GDM-4) and V3: (GDM-5). Significantly highest plant height (183.09 cm), number of primary (7.10) and secondary (17.08) branches per plant, number of siliquas per plant (309.07), number of seed per siliquae (14.06) and seed yield (2261 kg ha-1) was recorded with treatment D1 (19th November) at harvest. Significantly highest number of primary (6.39) and secondary (16.27) branches per plant, number of siliquas per plant (283.58), number of seed per siliquae (13.50) and seed yield (2087 kg ha-1) was recorded with treatment V2 (GDM-4) at harvest maturity.
