The experiment was conducted in the department of Plant Physiology C S Azad University of Agriculture & Technology. Kanpur in field during kharif session 2017 adopted Randomized Block Design with 10 treatments and Azad - 3 variety including control and each treatment was replicated three times with three levels of salicylic acid . 50, 100 and 150 ppm at the time of 20 DAS, 40 DAS and 60 DAS which was given through foliar application. Results maximum increase in yield and yield attributes viz., number of pods/plant, dry weight/plant, seed yield/plant, 100 seed weight (g), seed yield q/ha and harvest index(%) was recorded under the treatment of salicylic acid @ 150 ppm followed by 100 and 50 ppm of salicylic acid over control. Thus, in general it may be concluded that the foliar application of salicylic acid @ 150 ppm was found optimum concentration in enhancing yield of Black gram over rest of treatment under rain fed conditions. | Yield attributes and yield of urdbean as influenced by foliar application of salicylic acid under rainfed condition
