Abstract

The experiment was carried out during summer season of 2022 at crop research farm (CRF), Department of Agronomy, SHAUTS, Prayagraj (U.P), to evaluate the influence of potassium and sulphur rates on growth and yield of summer sunflower. The treatments consisted of 3 levels of Potassium (30,40,50 kg/ha) and Sulphur (10,20,30 Kg/ha) and a control. The experiment used a Randomized Complete Block Design (RCBD) with ten treatments that were replicated three times. The findings revealed that application of 50 kg potassium with combination of 30 kg sulphur as soil application recorded highest yield attributes namely seeds per capitulum (332.4) Test weight (33.7 g), seed yield (1,463.44 kg/ha), stover yield (3,211.6 kg/ha), harvest index (31.3%) and oil content(41.8 %). Maximum gross returns (98,050.48 (Indian rupee) INR/ha), net returns (64,665.51 (Indian rupee) INR/ha) and highest benefit - cost ratio (1.94) was found in treatment (T9) with the application of 50 kg potassium soil application with combination of 30 kg sulphur as soil application.

8 of 9 groups shown: named compounds and organisms first, then groups whose results differ (checked claim by claim), then those with positive and negative results, then the smaller groups.

Claims are grouped by organism, treatment and what was measured or targeted. A paper counts as positive when any of its claims in the group is positive.
