The experiment was conducted during Rabi season of 1999-2000 and 2000-01 on sandy loam soil at JNKVV, College of Agriculture, Farm, Gwalior (M.P.) to study the effect of different cropping systems and fertility levels on yield, yield attributes and economics of mustard (var. Pusa bold). Results showed that the maximum seed yield (23.05 q ha-1), oil content (40.39%), net return (Rs. 23661 ha-1), energy output (74024 MJ ha-1 ) and B:C ratio (3.19) were observed in blackgram – mustard followed by Peral milletmustard cropping system. Fertilizer application of 50% RD + Azotobacter + PSB @ 20g kg-1 seed, resulted in maximum net return (Rs. 20797 ha-1) and B.C. ratio (2.99) as compared to higher application of fertilizers.

Results showed that the maximum seed yield (23.05 q ha-1), oil content (40.39%), net return (Rs. 23661 ha-1), energy output (74024 MJ ha-1 ) and B:C ratio (3.19) were observed in blackgram – mustard followed by Peral milletmustard cropping system. Fertilizer application of 50% RD + Azotobacter + PSB @ 20g kg-1 seed, resulted in maximum net return (Rs. 20797 ha-1) and B.C. ratio (2.99) as compared to higher application of fertilizers.
