An on farm trial was conducted consequently two years in Rabi seasons of year 2011-12 and 2012-13 to optimize dose of sulphur to achieve markedly higher growth attributes, yield attributes and yield of mustard (Brassica juncea L.) cv, ‘Rajendra suflam’. Results of the trial revealed that growth & yield attributes like plant height, no. of branches plant-1, no. of siliqua plant-1and test weight were recorded significantly higher with application of 40 kg Sulphur ha-1 but it was statistically at par with the 30 kg Sulphur ha-1. The significantly higher seed (13.93 and 13.98 q ha-1) and stover yield was recorded with the application of sulphur @ 40 kg Sulphur ha-1 which was at par with 30 kg Sulphur ha-1, whereas lowest seed yields (10.13 and 10.14 q ha-1) was associated with farmers’ practice i.e. no sulphur during both the years of experimentations. However, the highest gross return (Rs. 51541 and Rs.51736 ha-1), net return (Rs.31923 and Rs. 31311 ha-1) and B: C ratio (2.63 and 2.53) was recorded @ 40 kg S ha-1 and lowest economics parameters were recorded with no sulphur application.
