Abstract:
A field experimental trial was conducted during Zaid season of 2021, at CRF (Crop Research Farm), Department of Agronomy, SHUATS, Prayagraj (U.P.) with the objective to evaluate the effect of nitrogen and sulphur on growth and yield of summer groundnut (Arachis hypogaea L.) under Randomized block design comprising of 9 treatments, with 3 different levels of nitrogen along with 3 different levels of sulphur that are replicated thrice. The treatment T₉ with 50 kg/ha nitrogen and 40 kg/ha sulphur has recorded maximum pod yield (2741.00 kg/ha), haulm yield (4371.00 kg/ha), gross returns (180980.75 INR/ha), net returns (134307.87 INR/ha) and B:C ratio (2.87).
