Abstract: A field experiment of two years was conducted in Rabi season 2015-16 and 2016-17 at Holy Cross Farm Dipugarda Hazaribag, Jharkhand India to study the effect of sulphur fertilization on yield, quality and economics of Mustard crop. The experiment was laid out in split plat design with three replicates, two main factors, three and five sub factors consisting of three sources of sulphur viz., SSP (Single Super Phosphate), Phosphogypsum and Elemental sulphur (Bntonite Sulphur) and four levels of sulphur i.e. 10kg sulphur/ha, 20kg sulphur/ha, 30 kg sulphur/ha and 40 kg/ha& control. Almost all the yield and quality attributes were significantly highest with application of SSP at 40kg of sulphur/ha, while maximum net return and BCR was recorded with application of SSP, sulphur levels at 20 kg/ha gave highest benefits in both the years.
