Effect of FYM and NPK on growth, yield and oil production of mustard under the agro-climatic condition of Tandojam- Pakistan. Pure and Applied Biology. Vol. 8, Issue 1, pp509-517. http://dx.doi.org/10.19045/bspab.2018.700210 Received: 06/10/2018 Revised: 05/12/2018 Accepted: 10/12/2018 Online First: 12/12/2018 Abstract In order to study the effect of FYM and NPK on growth, yield and oil production of mustard, Five treatments were formed including control T1= Natural (Farmer practice), T2= Recommended NPK 120- 80-40 kg ha -1 , T3= FYM 1 t ha -1 + NPK 120-80-40 kg ha -1 , T4= FYM 3 t ha -1 + NPK 120-80-40 kg ha -1 , T5= FYM 5 t ha -1 + NPK 120-80-40 kg ha -1 and T6= FYM 7 t ha -1 + NPK 120-80-40 kg ha -1 results showed that significantly (P<0.05) of seed yield and mustard of oil content influenced through the FYM & NPK levels. Results further showed that the mustard crop given recommended NPK 120-80-40 kg ha -1 in crop performance with 134.33 cm plant height, 188.37 no of pods plant -1 , 11.31 no of seeds pod -1 , 3.42g in seed index, 1510.21 kg seed production ha -1 and 31.10% oil content. However the minimum lowest crop performance was observed in control, where no fertilizer ware applied, having 128.33 cm plant height, 145.41 number of pods plant -1 , 8.12 number of seeds pods -1 , 3.00g seed index, 1325.14kg seed yield production ha -1 and 26.35% content oil. It is concluded that mustard yield increase with NPK combined with FYM 120-80-40 + 7 ton FYM but 5 ton FYM combined with NPK120-80-40 was economic dose for mustard production. The oil production also increase at combined application of FYM and NPK fertilizers.
