Mustrad seeds were sown by broadcasting as well as line spacing (25cm×5-7 cm). It was found that the mustard yield and yield attributing characters in line spacing was higher (1.35 t/ha) compared to broadcasting (1.33 t/ ha). It was also observed that PS 28 have the best yield (1.42 t/ha) in comparison to NC 1 (1.31 t/ha) and Piloo NG (1.30 t/ha).
