The soil of experimental site was sandy loam in texture, nearly neutral in soil reaction (pH 7.2), EC (0.34 dS/m), low in available N (203.7 kg/ha), medium in available P (17.2 kg/ha) and medium in available K (208.8 kg/ha). The experiment was laid out in Randomized block design and having nine treatment consisted of three levels of Phosphorus (P) <em>viz.,</em> (40, 30 and 20 kg/ha) and three levels of Potassium (K) <em>viz.,</em> (30, 20 and 10 kg/ha) which replicated thrice and effect was observed on Gujarat Til-4 sesame variety. The result showed significantly higher yield and yield attributes <em>viz.,</em> Number of Capsules per plant (49.80), Seeds per capsule (56.4), Test weight (3.90 g), Seed yield (361 kg/ha), Biological yield (2002.15 kg/ha) and quality analysis i.e. Oil content (50.53%) were recorded maximum in application of 40 kg P/ha plus 20 kg K/ha.</p>}, number={1&2}, journal={Environment Conservation Journal}, author={Priyadarshini, Ankita and C, Umesha and Meshram, R.}, year={2021}, month={Jun.}, pages={183–190} }
