Abstract

A field experiment was conducted during rabi season of 2014 on the topic entitled “Effect of planting geometry on growth and yieldof mustard [Brassica juncea (L.)] Varieties” in sandy loam soil of N.D. University of Agriculture and Technology, Kumarganj, Faizabad (U.P.). The experimental comprised of three planting geometry viz., 40×15cm, 40×20cm, 40×25cm and three varieties viz., Varuna, Vardan and NDR-8501.
