Abstract:

A factorial experiment in randomized complete block design involving three Sulphur levels i.e. 0, 20 and 40 kg S ha-1 and three levels of Boron viz. 0, 0.5 and 1 kg B ha-1 with nine treatment combinations with four replications was carried out during rabi season, 2012-13 to evaluate the effect of graded doses of Sulphur and Boron on yield attributes and nutrient uptake by chickpea. Results revealed that increasing S levels up to 40 kg ha-1 significantly increased yield attributes and seed yield of chickpea. Seed, stover and total uptake of N, P, K, S and B increased significantly up to 40 kg S ha-1. Yield attributes increased with graded doses of B but seed yield increased significantly with increasing doses of Boron. Maximum N, P, K, S and B uptake by seed and stover and their total uptake was observed with application of 1.0 kg B ha-1 which was significantly higher than its lower doses.
