Abstract: The field experiment was conducted during kharif season of 2008-09 at Research Farm of Jawahar Lal Nehru Krishi Vishwavidyalaya, Jabalpur, College of Agriculture, Indore for evaluating theResponse of Black gram to different levels and timings of sulphur application in Vertisols. Application of sulphur exhibited favorable effect on growth characters and yield attributes of black gram. Consequently higher yield was obtained by the treatment combination of T2S2 (50 % basal through Gypsum + 50 % at 20 DAS through sulphur 80% WP: 30 kg S ha-1)
Keywords: Black gram, Scheduling, Sulphur levels
