Abstract
An experiment was conducted during the rabi season of 2020-21 by
the AICRP on Oilseeds (Taramira Unit), SKNAU, Jobner to evaluate the
performance of promising taramaira genotypes under various fertility levels.
The experiment was laid out in split plot design assigning
taramira genotypes in main plot (RTM 1624, T 27, RTM 314, RTM 1351 and filler)
and fertility levels in sub plot (100% RDF, 125% RDF and 150% RDF). Different
taramira entries varied widely in seed yield and economic returns. Producing
the seed yield of 1272 kg/ha, RTM-1624 was found the most superior genotype. It
also registered the maximum values of yield attributes, net returns (Rs. 51819
/ha) and B: C ratio (3.07). RTM-1351 was the next better genotype of taramira
that provided seed yield of 1129 kg/ha. Different fertility levels also
significantly influenced the yield attributes, yield and net returns of
taramira. Progressive increase in level of fertility significantly increased
the yield of taramira over preceding level upto 125 % level. Further increase
in level to 150% did not bring significant variation in these respects.
Application of 150 % RDF resulted in significantly the highest seed yield of
1161 kg/ha. It also fetched the maximum net returns (Rs. 62676 /ha) and B: C
ratio (2.63). However, it was found at par with 125% RDF application wherein,
the corresponding figures were 1139 kg/ha, Rs. 45401 /ha and 2.64.
