ABSTRACT
An experiment was conducted at the Instructional-cum- Research Farm, Assam Agricultural University, Jorhat, during two consecutive rabi (Oct.-Feb.) seasons of 206-17 and 2017-18. The experiment was laid out in a Split-plot design with 3 replications to evaluate the growth, yield and uptake of mustard under irrigation and nutrient management practices. Among the 4 irrigation regimes, IW: CPE =1.60 and among the 5 nutrient management practices, 50 % N of RDF + 50 % N as FYM + Bio-fertilizers has resulted in superior growth parameters plant height, dry matter accumulation and number of branches/ plant, yield attributes, yield and harvest index and nutrient uptake of N,P and K.
Key words :
Growth & Yield attributes, Indian mustard, Nutrient uptake.
