A field experiment entitled “Efficacy of Gibberellic Acid and Sulphur on nutrient content, uptake and sulphur use efficiency by Mustard (Brassica juncea L.) under Aravalli hills of Rajasthan” was conducted during rabi season of 2020-21 at the research farm of Rajasthan College of Agriculture, Udaipur. The experiment consisting of four levels (control, 20, 40 and 60 kg ha-1) of sulphur and four levels (control, 25, 50 and 75 ppm) of gibberellic acid there by making 16 treatment combinations, were laid out in Factorial Randomized Block Design and replicated three times. The significant increase in nutrient content and nutrient uptake viz., N, P, K and S in seed and stover was observed with 40 kg S ha-1 ad 50 ppm GA3. The sulphur accumulation and sulphur use efficiency was found maximum at foliar spray of 50ppm GA3 when basal dose of sulphur is applied.
