A field experiment was conducted at department of agronomy, School of Agricultural Sciences, G. H. Raisoni University, Saikheda, Chhindwara Madhya Pradesh during Rabi season 2018. The experiment consisted of 16 treatment combinations of four levels each of potassium (0, 25, 50 and 75 kg ha-1) and Nitrogen (0, 20, 40 and 60 kg ha-1). The experimental results revealed that maximum seed yield (1519.58 kg ha-1), net returns (₹ 58350 ha-1) and B:C ratio (3.9) were recorded under the application of progressive increase in level of potassium up to 40 kg K2O ha-1 and Nitrogen 20 kg ha-1 over rest of treatments.
