Assessment of high yielding varieties of mustard through front line demonstration in district Hathras.

Assessment of Front Line Demonstration on Mustard Crop in Hathras District of Uttar Pradesh. The domestic requirement of oil seed had been manifold of a modern livening standard which has been fulfilled through the import that lead to imbalance the Indian economy. The aim of this study was to evaluate the influence of mustard varieties and year of production in relation of weather condition on seed yields, oil content and its quality with a focus on human nutrition value through a field study carried at three different locations in Hathras. The seed yield was significantly affected by the year of production the location and the variety. The environmental factors that negatively affected seed yield are temperature in summer, water shortage, wet and cold soil in spring. The highest seed yield reached at mid-heavy soil in the region with lower precipitation amount.R.H-749 would we recommendable for Hathras environmental condition. R.H.-749 variety gave the significantly highest oil yield. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
