A field experiment entitled “Effect of stress mitigating chemicals and sulphur on growth and yield of mungbean [Vigna radiata (L.) Wilczek]” was conducted at Instructional Farm, College of Agriculture, Jodhpur (Rajasthan) during kharif season of 2019 and laid out in factorial randomized block design (FRBD) with sixteen treatment combinations and replicated thrice. The treatments were taken in the investigation viz. stress mitigating chemicals control, salicylic acid @ 75 ppm, salicylic acid @ 75 ppm + 2% urea and thiourea @ 500 ppm and four levels of sulphur. The result indicated that application of thiourea @ 500 ppm at flower initiation stage of mungbean significantly registered higher growth well as significantly more yield followed by salicylic acid @ 75 ppm + 2% urea at flower initiation stage, which was statistically at par with each others with respect yield of mungbean. Results further revealed that among doses of sulphur, 40 kg sulphur/ha was at par with 30 kg sulphur/ha with respect to all parameters taken during experimentation.
