Abstract
The field experiment was conducted during the Rabi season of 2023-24 at the Crop Research Centre, School of Agriculture, ITM University, Gwalior, (M.P.) The Effect of Different Sources and Levels of Sulphur on Yield and Economics of Linseed. The experiment consists of three sources of sulphur (Gypsum, Single Super Phosphate and Ammonium sulphate) and three levels of sulphur (30, 60, and 90 kg S ha-1), and absolute control was laid out in a Factorial randomized block design with three replications. The results revealed that the application of Ammonium sulphate recorded significantly maximum number of capsules plant-1, number of seeds capsules-1, test weight, seed yield, straw yield, biological yield and harvest index, being at par with Gypsum and followed by SSP. Among the sulphur levels, the application of 90 kg S ha-1 recorded significantly maximum number of capsules plant-1, number of seeds capsules-1, test weight, seed yield, straw yield, biological yield and harvest index, being at par with 60 kg S ha-1 and followed by 30 kg S ha-1. Among all the treatment combinations, T9- 60 kg through Ammonium sulphate recorded maximum value of net return, and benefit-cost ratio.
