e0“To study the effect of irrigation and sulphur on Indian mustard, a field experiment was conducted”
e3“application of two irrigations being on par with one irrigation, significantly increased sulphur content in forage over no irrigation, which resulted in increased sulphur uptake by crop in both the years of study”

- Intervention effect Two irrigations significantly increased plant height and number of primary and secondary branches of Indian mustard over one irrigation.
- Intervention effect Two irrigations gave significantly higher dry matter accumulation and forage yield of Indian mustard than one irrigation.
- Intervention effect Two irrigations significantly increased sulphur content in Indian mustard forage over no irrigation.
- Intervention effect Increasing sulphur level increased plant height and dry matter accumulation of Indian mustard.
- Intervention effect Applying 45 kg S/ha produced more primary branches in Indian mustard than the control.
- Intervention effect Other sulphur levels stayed on par with each other in primary branch number of Indian mustard.
- Intervention effect Secondary branch number of Indian mustard increased with sulphur up to 30 kg/ha.
- Intervention effect Forage yield of Indian mustard increased significantly with successive increases in applied sulphur.
- Intervention effect Sulphur content in forage and sulphur uptake of Indian mustard increased significantly with increasing sulphur level.
