Evaluation on the Role of Different Production Factor on the Yield of Rapeseed

Abstract

Rapeseed and mustard are third most important edible oilseeds of the world after soybean and palm oil. Among the factor the choice of fertilizer is also one of the major factors as rape seed is very much effective in up taking the nutrient from the soil.  With the objective of finding the judicious use of the combination of chemical fertilizer and other organic fertilizer, experiment was conducted in Oilseed Research program, NARC. The experiment was carried out in randomized complete block design with seven treatments replicated thrice. The plot size was 15 m 2 with plant sown continuously in rows spaced 30 cm apart. Highest yield (396 kg/ha) was observed in treatment no. 7 (125% RDF) Lack of knowledge in the field of the optimum fertilizers use is hindrance in the soil health as well a crop productivity. Best combination of fertilizer and their optimum used can enrich the soil health as well as reduce the input cost and increase the yield.
