Abstract: A field experiment was conducted during rabi season of 2017-18 at the research farm of Soil Science, Sam Higginbottom University of Agriculture, Technology and Sciences, Allahabad on “Response of FYM, Nitrogen and Sulphur on Soil Physico-chemical Properties and Yield of Mustard (Brassica juncea L.) var. Varuna. The experiment was laid out in randomized block design (RBD) with three replications and nine treatments. The fertilizer was applied at three different factors- N (@ 0, 40 80 kg ha-1), S (@ 0, 10, 20 kg ha-1) and FYM (@0, 5, 10 t ha-1). The soil bulk density, porosity, pH and EC (dSm-1), organic carbon (%), available nitrogen (kg ha-1), phosphorous (kg ha-1), potassium (kg ha-1) and sulphur (ppm) of soil were found significant at different levels of FYM, N and S. It was concluded that the application of FYM, N and S @100% i.e., the treatment T8 (@100%N40S20 + @10 t ha-1 FYM) was found more beneficial and significantly improved with growth parameters and yield of mustard as compared to other treatments. This treatment also showed maximum benefit: cost ratio (2.53) respectively.
