Abstract:

Considering the nutrient use efficiency of fertilizers under irrigation condition, a field studies were conducted during rabi 2016 on a clay loam soil at the PGI farm, MPKV, Rahuri, to study the influence of fertilizer levels and different varieties of safflower. The fertilizer dose of 100% recommended dose of fertilizer with variety SSF 748 is beneficial for maximum seed yield (2766.46 kg ha-1), net monetary returns (Rs. 45054.0 ha-1) and benefit cost ratio (2.54) of safflower.
