Abstract: A field study was conducted with mung crop on alluvial soil of Varanasi district during zaid season (2015) to investigate the response of mung crop to B application The treatment were T₁ (control), T₂ (1 kg B ha^-1+NPK), T₃ (1.5 kg B ha^-1 +NPK), T₄ (2 kg B ha^-1+NPK) T₅ (2.5 kg B ha^-1 + NPK), T₆ (3 kg B ha^-1 +NPK). In general, the higher plant height (11.67cm),number of branches (12.00), number of nodules (19.67), number of grain per pod (9.20), of mung were obtained with T₆ treatment followed by T₅> T₄> T₃> T₂> and T₁ control . As evident from results, grain and Stover yield increased significantly with B application. The mean maximum grain weight (5.18q ^-1) and Stover yield (7.86q ha^-1) were obtained at higher dose of B (3kg B ha^-1). The mung experiment was laid out in randomized block design (RBD) with three replications.
