Effect of organic manure and sulphur on growth and yield attributes of linseed (Linum usitatissimum L.)

The field experiment was conducted during Rabi season of 2023 at Crop Research Farm, Department of Agronomy. The experiment was laid out in a Randomized Block Design with ten treatments which have replicated thrice. The treatment details are as follows T1 Vermicompost 6 t/ha+ Sulphur 15 kg/ha, T2 Vermicompost 6 t/ha+ Sulphur 20 kg/ha, T3 Vermicompost 6 t/ha+ Sulphur 30 kg/ha, T4 FYM 12t/ha + Sulphur 15 kg/ha, T5 FYM 12t/ha + Sulphur 20 kg/ha, T6 FYM 12t/ha + Sulphur 30 kg/ha, T7 Vermicompost 3t/ha + FYM 6t/ha + Sulphur 15 kg/ha, T8Vermicompost 3t/ha + FYM 6t/ha + Sulphur 15 kg/ha, T9Vermicompost 3t/ha + FYM 6t/ha + Sulphur 15 kg/ha and control Plot. The result of experimental plot that the Application of Vermicompost 3 ton/ha +FYM 6 t/ha + 30 kg/ha Sulphur (Treatment 9) recorded significantly Result revealed that the highest plant height (58.00 cm), highest dry weight (3.27 g), capsules per plant (31.87), seeds per capsules (7.67), test weight (11.83 g), seed yield (1194.33kg/ha), Stover yield (2702.67 kg/ha) and oil content (40.18%). Were significantly influenced with application Vermicompost 3 ton/ha +FYM 6 t/ha + Sulphur 30 kg/ha. Higher gross return (INR 148278.33 /ha), higher net return (INR 97278.33/ha) and higher B: C ratio (1.91) were also recorded in treatment -Nine (Vermicompost 3 ton/ha +FYM 6 t/ha + Sulphur 30 kg/ha).
