Abstract
A field experiment was conducted during rabi season of 2009-10 and 2010-11 on clay loam soils at Kota (Rajasthan) to find out optimum dose of chemical fertilizers with biofertilizers for increasing the productivity, profit- ability and quality of Indian mustard [Brassica juncea (L.) Czern & Coss]. Application of 100 % RDF(N P S ) + 80 17.5 60 seed inoculation with Azotobacter+ PSB (AP) significantly increased number of primary and secondary branches/ plant, number of siliquae/plant, test weight, seed and stover yield, net returns ( 37200/ha), B: C ratio (2.64), oil content and oil yield (1,034 kg/ha) over control. Maximum uptake of nutrients (NPS) was recorded with 100 % RDF + AP, in seed and stover over rest of the fertility levels. The next best fertility treatment was 100 % RDF or 75 % RDF + biofertilizers.
