Keeping in view the nutritional, income and employment potential of Mustard in Lakhimpur Kheri district of U.P. assumes special significance; the study was based on 100 respondents of different categories. Primary data were collected through interview method and secondary data were collected from Govt. offices. Simple tabular analysis was applied for drawing results. The study revealed that there are three types of constraints faced and raised by the Mustard growers i.e. Technical problem, Management problem, Labour problem. Technical problems were ranked first followed by Management problems, Labour problem. All the problems were commonly faced by the marginal farmers followed by small farmers and medium farmers. Thus, it can be concluded that problems and size group of farms have indirect relationship. Means as the size of the farm increases problems faced are decreases. Good quality seed, adequate farmer's training and crop loan should be facilitated to the farmers. Mustard is a lucrative crop and it can help the farmers in doubling their income in the study area.
