Abstract


A study was conducted under the All India Co-ordinated Research Project on Dry-1 land Agriculture, Gujarat Agricultural University, Anand Campus Anand during Kharif and rabi seasons of 1974-75 with four levels of nitrogen (0, 15, 30, and 45 kg/ha) and four levels of P40, (0,30,60, and 90 kg/ha) to find out optimum dose of N and PO for sunflower under rainted conditions. The results indicated that Nitrogen application upto 30 kg N/ha increased yield and higher levels of N did not result in further increa- se in yield, on the otherhand it affected yields adversely. Application of 30 kg N per hectare also appeared to be the economical level for sunflower crop.
