Abstract: A field experiment was conducted during rabi season 2017-18 at the Horticulture Research Farm, College of Horticulture, Mandsaur (M.P.) to study the response of sulphur and zinc on growth, yield and quality of Coriander. The experiment was laid out in factorial RBD with three replications including four levels of sulphur (0, 15, 30 and 45 kg S/ha) and four levels of zinc (0, 2, 4 and 6 kg Zn/ha). Results showed that sulphur application at 45 kg/ha significantly increased leaf area index, leaf area duration, specific leaf area, crop growth rate, relative growth rate, seeds umbel-1, biological yield, seed yield (16.93 q/ha), seed index (g), chlorophyll content (SPAD) essential oil and dry matter content in seed (%) over control and 15 kg S/ha. significantly leaf area index, leaf area duration, specific leaf area, crop growth rate, relative growth rate, seeds umbel-1 biological yield, seed yield (17.19 q/ha) seed index (g), chlorophyll content (SPAD Value) essential oil and dry matter content in seed (%) were obtained with application of 6 kg of Zn/ha over control and 2 kg Zn/ha. Therefore, the application of 45 kg S/ha and 6 kg Zn/ha gave maximum growth, yield and quality of Coriander.
