The experiment was carried out at Vasantrao Naik Marathwada Krishi Vidyapeeth, Parbhani during rabi season 2020-21. To study the effect of different fertilizer doses in linseed (Linum usitatissimum L.) The experiment was laid out in randomized block design with three replication and nine treatments of fertilizer doses such as T1 : 25:25:00 NPK kg ha-1 (RDF), T2 : 30:30:00 NPK kg ha-1, T3 : 35:35: 00 NPK kg ha-1, T4 : 25:25:25 NPK kg ha-1, T5 : 30:30:00 NPK kg ha-1, T6 : 35:35: 00 NPK kg ha-1, T7 : 40:20:20 NPK kg ha-1, T8 : 50:25:25 NPK kg ha-1, T9: control. The result of the experiment revealed that among the different treatments 50:25:25 NPK kg ha-1 (T8) recorded the higher growth attributes such as plant height(cm), more number of functional leaves, higher leaf area (dm2), higher number of branches, higher dry matter accumulation (g), also yield and yield attributes such as weight of seed plant-1, number of pod plant-1, number of seeds plant-1, seed index (g), seed yield kg ha-1, straw yield kg ha-1, harvest index % and but it was comparable with the treatments 40:20:20 NPK kg ha-1 (T7).
