ABSTRACT
A field experiment was conducted on clayey soil having medium status of available N, P, K and S at Junagadh during rabi season of 2014-15 to study the effect of potassium and sulphur levels on growth,yield and economics of coriander (Coriandrum sativum L.). The experiment comprising of 12 treatment combinations with four levels of potassium (0, 20, 40 and 60 kg/ha) and three levels of sulphur (0, 20 and 40 kg/ha) was laid out in Factorial Randomized block design with three replications. Among the levels of potassium K3 (40 kg/ha) promoted growth parameters viz., plant height, plant spread, number of branches per plant and yield attributes viz., number of umbels per plant, number of seeds per umbellate, seed weight per plant, test weight, seed yield (1488 kg/ha), stover yield (1603 kg/ha) with higher net return (`58731/ha) and B:C ratio (2.74) over the control (K1). Among the levels of sulphur S3 (40 kg/ha) enhanced growth parameters viz., plant height, plant spread, number of branches per plant and yield attributes viz., number of umbels per plant, number of umbellates per umbel, number of seeds per umbellate, seed weight per plant, test weight, seed yield (1534 kg/ha), stover yield (1653 kg/ha). The maximum net realization of (`59639/ha) and B:C ratio (2.78) was obtained with 20 kg S/ha (S2). It also significantly increased content and uptake of NPKS kg/ha.
