Effect of Sulphur and Foliar Application of Boron on Growth and Yield Attributes of Lentil (Lens culinaris L.)

A field experiment was performed at Crop Research Farm, Department of Agronomy, Naini Agriculture Institute, Sam Higginbottom Institute of Agriculture, Technology and Sciences, Prayagraj, UP, during the Rabi season of 2022, to determine the “Effect of sulphur and foliar application of Boron on growth and yield of lentil (Lens culinaris L.)”. The experiment consists of three replications in which there were three levels of Sulphur (15, 30 and 45 kg/ ha) and three levels of boron (0.1%, 0.2% and 0.3%) and one control. Among the various treatment combinations in Treatment-9 with the application of Sulphur 45 kg/ ha along with boron 0.3% foliar spray at 35 DAS significantly recorded higher plant height (41.25 cm), maximum number of nodules/plant (25.07), maximum dry weight (16.43 g/plant), maximum number of pods/plant (118.67), maximum number of seeds/pod (2.00) in lentil crop.
