ABSTRACT
A research experiment was conducted during kharif season of 2017 at College of Agriculture, Research farm Gwalior (M.P.) under Department of Agronomy. On the basis of results obtained the treatment neem coated urea 2% + salicylic acid 75 ppm spray at flower initiation gave significantly higher seed yield (2685 kg/ha), net monetary return (‘1818103/ha), BCR (6.21) and harvest index (29.23%) as compared to other treatments but at par with treatment neem coated urea 2% spray at flower initiation, NPK (19 : 19 : 19) 2% spray at flower initiation and TNAU pulse wonder 5 kg/ha at flower initiation.
