Abstract: A field experiment was carried out on “Influence of graded fertilizer levels and zinc on yield and quality of sesame (Sesamum indicum L.) in inceptisol†during kharif season of the year 2018-19 at the Oilseed Research Station, Latur. The experiment was laid in randomized block design with three replication and variety of sesame JLT-408 as a test crop along with nine treatments. The results of field study indicated that the yield and quality of sesame were significantly influenced by application of levels of RDF along with or without zinc. The yield contributing characters viz., seed and stover yield and quality parameters such as oil content, oil yield, protein content and protein yield were significantly improved in treatment T9- 150% RDF + 25 kg ZnSO4 ha-1 followed by treatment T5-150% RDF, further, recorded significantly superior in T8- 125% RDF + 25 kg ZnSO4 ha-1 as compared to absolute control.
