An experiment was conducted to study the effect of different sources and levels of sulphur on growth, yield and quality parameters of onion at ICAR-National Institute On Abiotic Stress Management, Baramati, Pune, Maharashtra. The treatments made up of three incremental doses of sulphur application (30, 45 and 60 kg S ha-1) and no sulphur application (control, 0 kg S ha-1). Sources of sulphur (Elemental sulphur- Bentonite clay, Potassium schoenite and ammonium sulphate). The experiment was laid out in RBD design with three replications and fourteen treatments. Other fertilizers were applied according to recommended doses. The results showed that the double and bolter percentage was significantly higher in RDF + sulphur @ 30 kg ha-1 as elemental sulphur soil application (2.96 and 1.14%) and statistically on par with absolute control (2.64 and 1.52%). The treatment RDF + sulphur @ 45 and 60 kg ha-1 as potassium schoenite-Nutripellet pack recorded significantly less per cent doubles (0.99 and 1.29 %) followed by RDF + 45 and 60 kg ha-1 as potassium schoenite soil application (1.44 and 1.48%).
