Paper Summary

Farmyard manure, nitrogen, and fertilizer source were studied to see their impact on the growth and yield of Indian mustard. Using up to 10 tonnes/ha of farmyard manure increased plant height and branches. Applying 75 kg/ha of nitrogen improved seed yield and weight. S-containing fertilizers also enhanced growth and yield compared to S-free ones. Overall, farmyard manure at 10 tonnes/ha and nitrogen at 75 kg/ha were found to be beneficial for improving the yield of Indian mustard.
