Abstract: An experiment was conducted during Rabi season 2015-16 at Students’ Instructional Farm (SIF), C.S.A.U.A&T Kanpur. Twelve treatments were tested in three replicated Randomized Block Design. Result found that significantly higher number of primary and secondary branches plant-1 and yield (24.30 q/ha) was obtained with combined application of RDN 50% + 25% FYM + 25% vermicompost + 30 kg S + azotobacter over rest of the treatments. The minimum grain yield (20.15 q/ha) and biological yield was received in treatment 100% RDN. The application of RDN 50% + 25% FYM + 25% vermicompost + 30 kg S + azotobacter was also found significantly higher gross income (Rs. 107210/ha) and net profit (Rs. 69798/ha) over rest of the treatments. Benefit: Cost ratio was also significantly higher (1.87) with application of RDN 50% + 25% FYM + 25% vermicompost + 30 kg S + azotobacter over rest of the treatments. The minimum gross income (Rs. 88889/ha), net income (Rs.54796/ha) and B: C ratio was received in treatment of 100% RDN. Thus, mustard fertilized with RDN 50% + 25% FYM+25% vermicompost+30 kg S +azotobacter have to be more remunerative in terms of economic and yields.
