Background: India is experiencing a severe scarcity of edible oil, owing to high demand caused by population growth, rising living standards and increased demand from oil-consuming sectors. Sesame crop cultivation is gaining traction as a way to overcome the oilseed gap. The main aim of this study is to identify the suitable high yielding cultivar of sesame and to standardize the sulphur levels to obtain higher yield and quality. Methods: The present investigation was carried out at S.V. Agricultural College Farm, Tirupati campus of Acharya N.G. Ranga Agricultural University during summer, 2019 in factorial randomized block design (RBD) with four varieties (YLM-66, YLM-17, YLM-11 and Madhavi) and four levels of sulphur (0, 20, 40 and 60 kg S ha-1). Result: The variety madhavi (V4) took fewer days to attain 50 % flowering and maturity and the variety YLM 66 (V1) recorded higher number of capsules plant-1, seed yield, protein content, gross returns, net returns and benefit: Cost. Application of 60 kg S ha-1 recorded higher yield and yield attributes, oil content, gross returns and net returns of sesame which was however found on par with 40 kg S ha-1. The interaction between sesame varieties and sulphur levels in influencing all the above parameters were found to be non-significant. In conclusion, the present study revealed that the variety YLM 66 (V1) with application of 60 kg S ha-1 gave higher yield and quality of sesame.

“…The quantity of farmyard manure applied is determined by crop nutrient needs, soil type, and other factors, with soils deficient in essential nutrients benefiting significantly from increased farmyard manure application. However, caution is necessary to avoid excessive use, which may lead to nutrient imbalances and associated problems, as highlighted by Kalaiyarasan et al (2019). Additionally, the discussion notes the impact of organic manure on flower size, suggesting a positive response in agronomic characteristics linked to yield.…”

The research was conducted in 2022 in the Agronomy Student's Experiment Farm at Sindh Agriculture University Tando Jam. It used a complete block design with randomization. The main goal was to evaluate how much adding different amounts of FYM and nitrogen-phosphorus affected the growth and seed production ability of sunflowers. The research had five different FYM options and nitrogen-phosphorus levels. The HO-1 variety was given these treatments. The assigned treatments were as follows: T1 = control (no FYM, 0 kg/ha nitrogen and 0 kg/ha phosphorus); T2 = adding a small amount of farmyard manure plus some extra nutrients in the form of nitrogen at a rate of 30kg per hectare, along with an additional quantity of 15 kg per hectare. The best results were seen in T5 (5 tons of farm FYM + fertilizers, with 120 kg per hectare of nitrogen and 50 kg per hectare of phosphorus). This method resulted in the most plants on a square meter (9.11), the tallest plant growth at about 248.8 cm high; T5 was closely followed with good results (a lot of FYM plus 120 kg per hectare nitrogen and 50 kg phosphorus). The research indicates that the optimal combination for enhancing sunflower growth and yield includes applying 120 kg ha-1 of nitrogen, 50 kg ha-1 of phosphorus, and incorporating 5 tons of FYM.

“…Nevertheless, it is essential to be cautious, as excessive use of farmyard manure may lead to nutrient imbalances and give rise to various related issues. (Kalaiyarasan et al, 2019). Additionally, the concentration of chlorophyll displayed a notable response to nutrient management, with the highest levels achieved through the application of farmyard manure.…”

In this study, we investigate the impact of different rates of farmyard manure application on the growth and yield of sunflower (Helianthus annuus L.). Our objective is to assess how various levels of organic fertilizer influence the development and productivity of this crop. The experiment involved five integrated applications of farmyard manure (T1 = 00 tons of farmyard manure + P (0), T2 = 1 ton of farmyard manure, P (30 P kg ha-1), T3 = 3 tons of farmyard manure + (60 P kg ha-1), T4 = 4 tons of farmyard manure + 90 P kg ha-1, and T5 = 5 tons of farmyard manure + (120 P kg ha-1). The results revealed that T5 = 5 tons of farmyard manure and (120 P kg ha-1). resulted best and produced the maximum plant population (m2) (10.5), plant height (273.7 cm), stem girth (10.9 cm), head diameter (53.8 cm), number of seeds head-1 (2696.9), seed weight head-1 (60.7 g), seed index (32.7 g), and seed yield (2698.7 kg ha-1). Whereas the T1=00-ton Farm Yard Manure treatment produced the least results and recorded plant population (m-2) (6.6), plant height (217.7 cm), stem girth (9.3), head diameter (30.3 cm), number of seeds head-1 (1510.7), seed weight head-1 (26.6 g), seed index (23.0 g), and seed yield (2100.0 kg ha-1). It is therefore recommended that, for obtaining higher growth and seed yields of sunflower, farmyard manure should be applied at 5 tons per hectare, and (120 P kg ha-1) respectively. The results concluded that the growth and yield of sunflowers were significantly affected by the application of farmyard manure as compared to the control (no farmyard manure). The grain yield increased linearly with increasing farmyard manure levels. However, the plot fertilized with 5 tons of farmyard manure produced the maximum grain yield of sunflower.
