A field experiment was conducted during the Rabi season of 2012-13 at NRCSS, Ajmer, Rajasthan, to study growth and yield of coriander as influenced by varying levels of sulphur and zinc. Treatments comprising of three sulphur levels (soil application of 20, 30 and 40 kg sulphur ha-1) and three zinc levels (foliar application of 0.4, 0.5 and 0.6 % zinc) were studied in factorial randomized block design with four replications. Reduction in days to germination initiation and enhanced days of flowering were observed due to higher dosage of sulphur. Plant height was not significantly influenced with varying sulphur levels except at 60 days after sowing. Higher number of primary (8.03) and secondary branches plant-1 (25.08), number of umbellates umbel-1 (5.61) and seed yield (1990.69 kg ha-1) was obtained with soil application of 40 kg sulphur hectare-1. Varying levels of foliar application of zinc did not significantly influence plant height except at 60 DAS. The highest number of primary branches plant-1 (7.66), number of umblets umbel-1 (5.61) and seed yield (2027 kg ha-1) were obtained with foliar application of 0.6% zinc. Basal application of sulphur @ 40 kg ha-1 along with foliar application of 0.6 percent zinc is better for realizing higher yield of coriander
