Abstract

A field experiment was conducted at Research farm, Vivekananda Global University, Jaipur during Kharif season¸ 2024-25 on loamy sand soil. The experiment comprises ten treatments of nitrogen viz., (Control, 100% Nitrogen at Sowing, 50% Nitrogen at sowing + 50% at 25 DAS, 50% Nitrogen at sowing + 25% at 25 DAS + 25% at 50 DAS, 33% Nitrogen at sowing + 33% at 25 DAS + 33% at 50 DAS, 50% Nitrogen at sowing + 30% at 25 DAS + 20% as foliar spray, 50% Nitrogen at sowing + 40% at 25 DAS + 10% as foliar spray, 40% Nitrogen at sowing + 40% at 25 DAS + 20% as foliar spray, 60% Nitrogen at sowing + 30% at 25 DAS + 10% as foliar spray, 70% Nitrogen at sowing + 30% as foliar spray) was laid out in randomized block design and replicated thrice. The results indicated that among the treatments application of T8 40% Nitrogen at sowing + 40% at 25 DAS + 20% as foliar spray recorded significantly higher grain yield (1563 kg ha-1) and biological yield (5905 kg ha-1). However, maximum net return (Rs. 32991 ha-1) and B: C ratio (2.20) obtained with the application of same treatment.
