Abstract:

A field experiment was conducted at Horticulture Farm, S.K.N. College of Agriculture, Jobner (Jaipur) during Rabi season 2015-16. The experiment consisting four levels of NPK (0, 75, 100 and 125% RD of NPK) and four doses of sulphur (0, 20, 40 and 60 kg sulphur ha-1). The total 16 treatment combinations were tested in randomized block design with three replications. Results revealed that application of 125 per cent recommended dose of NPK and sulphur doses @ 60 kg ha-1 to the cauliflower crop significantly increased the nitrogen, phosphorus, potassium and sulphur content in curd and nitrogen, phosphorus, potessium in soil as compared to control, 75 per cent recommended dose of NPK and 20 kg sulphur ha-1 but statistically at par with 100 per cent recommended dose of NPK and 40 kg sulphur ha-1. The combined application of 100 per cent recommended dose of NPK with 40 kg sulphur ha-1 proved to be most superior treatment combination in terms of nutrient analysis because resulting saving of 25 per cent recommended dose of NPK and 20 kg sulphur ha-1.


Keywords: Cauliflower, NPKS content in soil and curd, Nutrient analysis.
