Field experiments were conducted at the farmer’s field in Adhata village, Amdanga
block, North 24 Parganas, West Bengal, India, during the dry season of 2005–2006 and
2006–2007 in an inceptisol (pH 6.8) to evaluate the nitrosulf and elemental sulphur on
the growth and yield of rapeseed (cv. B 9). Indeed, there are only four rates of nitrosulf
and two rates of elemental S which were applied to the soil. The total S content in dry
matter of rapeseed gradually increased up to 80 days of crop growth when S was applied
either as nitrosulf or elemental S, being greater with nitrosulf compared to elemental S
application. The highest mean S uptake by rapeseed and straw was 286 and 190%
increase over that of the control, respectively, in the treatment T5 (0.2% S as nitrosulf).
The mean plant height, number of siliqua plant71, number of seeds siliqua71 and
thousand seed weight were highest in treatment T5 with 20, 34.8, 42.9 and 18.9%
increase over that of the control, respectively. The yield of seed and stover recorded
highest percentage increase of 66 and 71.6%, respectively, in the treatment T5 over that
of the control during both the years.
