Abstract
This research aims to evaluate the total money requited for application of Sulphur and Nitrogen fertilizers on Mustard crop in Jaunpur Uttar Pradesh. The field experiment on the topic “Evaluate the economics of Sulphur and Nitrogen treatments on Mustard crop (Brassica juncea L.)” was conducted in eastern U.P. in Pilikothi research farm Tilak Dhari P.G. College Jaunpur in Rabi season 2023-24 from November to march. The soil of experiment field is well drained sandy loam soil with low organic content and average in nitrogen, phosphorous and potash content. The soil of the field is slightly alkaline nature and the electrical conductivity of the soil is 0.580dsm-1. The variety of mustard used is VIGOUR-2311. This experiment is conducted with three levels of nitrogen (0, 60, 120 kg ha-1) and three levels of sulphur (0, 30, 40 kg ha-1) in Factorial Randomized Block Design (FRBD). The data of Economics like “total cost of cultivation, gross income, net income and B:C ratio” of different treatment combinations of above nutrients are evaluated after harvest of mustard crop and the result is as expected means the higher dose combination of applied nutrient have higher value of economic data parameters and that combination gave amazing profit in this cultivation.
