A field experiment was carried out at Agricultural Research Farm, Institute of Agricultural Sciences, Banaras Hindu University, Varanasi (UP) during rabi season of 2007 and 2008 to study the fertility levels on performance of Indian mustard under late sown condition. The treatments were comprised of four fertility levels viz; 75% RDF (F1), 100% RDF (F2), 125% RDF (F3), and 150% RDF (F4), where RDF was 80, 40, 30 kg N,P, K and ha−1 in main plot and five varieties viz; 'Kranti' (V1), 'Vardan' (V2), 'Varuna' (V3), 'NRCHB-101' (V4), and 'Ashirwad' (V5), insplit plot design with three replications. Plant height, number of leaves, dry matter, leaf area index and chlorophyll content and branches plant−1 were increased with increasing fertility levels. Treatment with 150% RDF (F4) which was significantly superior but closely followed by 125% RDF (F3), 100% RDF (F2) and 75% RDF (F1). Among the varieties 'NRCHB-101' (V4) performed significantly better growth, yield parameters and yield of mastard which was significantly superior to other varieties except 'Ashirwad' (V5).
