A field experiment was conducted during Rabi season 2024 at Crop Research Farm, Department of Agronomy, SHUATS, Prayagraj (U.P) on Toria. The soil of experimental plot was sandy loam in texture, low in organic carbon (0.72%), nearly neutral in soil Ph (7.2), Nitrogen (178.48 kg/ha), Phosphorous (27.80 kg/ha), Potassium (233.24 kg/ha). The Treatment consist of Direction of sowing (North-South, East-West, Control (NW-SE)) and Phosphorus (50, 60, 70 kg/ha) levels. The experiment was carried out in a randomized block design with ten treatments and were replicated thrice. The results revealed that significantly higher number of Siliqua/plant (222.40), number of seeds/Siliqua (19.40), seed yield (2.22 t/ha), stover yield (8.32 t/ha), Maximum gross return (INR 127400.00/ha), net returns (INR 84094.00/ha) and benefit cost ratio (1.94) were obtained in the treatment T₅ (East-West + 60 kg/ha P) in Toria crop.
