The investigation entitled “Effect of foliar application of GA3, on yield and quality of Indian mustard [Brassica Juncea (L.) Czern. & Coss.] under sodic soil” was conducted during rabi season, 2016-2017 at the Main Experiment Station (MES) Farm of Narendra Deva University of Agriculture and Technology, Kumarganj, Faizabad-224 229 (U.P.) in randomized block design with eight treatments, three replications and variety Narendra rai (NDR-8501). Various concentrations of GA3 (15ppm, 30ppm, 45ppm, 60ppm, 75ppm, 90ppm, 125ppm) were taken along with untreated control. Sprayed was done at 30 DAS. Yield contributing traits were taken as number of siliquae plant-1, length of silique plant-1, number of seeds silique-1, seed yield plant-1, yield quintal ha-1 after harvest. Foliar sprayed of different concentrations of GA3 increased yield and quality characters of mustard crop. Yield and quality contributing traits were maximum recorded with foliar sprayed of GA3 125ppm followed by foliar sprayed with GA3 90ppm over rest of the treatments including control, during the investigation.
