    <abstract language="eng">Sulphur is increasing and after nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium is forth important macro nutrient. In this study three sources of sulphur i.e., Gypsum, Elemental sulphur and Potassium Sulphate with three levels i.e., 40, 70 and 100 kg S ha<sup>-1</sup> for each source were tried.  The pooled data showed sulphur from potassium sulphate recorded the lowest days to first flower (246), days to 75% seed maturity (328.1), and highest number of branches plant<sup>-1</sup> (35), number of siliqua plant<sup>-1</sup> (709.5), 1000 seed weight (3.87g), seed count siliqua<sup>-1</sup> (20.8), seed yield plant<sup>-1</sup> (12.9 g), seed yield  hectare<sup>-1</sup> (4.8 q), highest Dry matter (9.6 g), TSS (7.6<sup>o</sup>Brix), Crude protein (20.6%), head compactness (0.032) and oil content (29.7%). Application of increasing levels of sulphur up to 100 kg ha<sup>-1</sup> significantly increased the seed yield contributing characters in cabbage as lowest days taken to first flower (250.8), lowest days to 75% seed maturity(334.1) and highest  number of branches plant<sup>-1</sup> (31.7), siliqua  plant<sup>-1</sup> (671.60), seed count  siliqua<sup>-1</sup> (17.9), 1000 seed weight (2.6g), seed yield plant<sup>-1</sup> (11.90 g) and seed yield  hectare<sup>-1</sup> (4.4q ) whereas, among  quality parameters highest vitamin C (59.1 mg/100), dry matter weight (9.0 g), Crude protein (18.3), and Head compactness (0.026) were recorded with sulphur application of 70  kg ha<sup>-1</sup>.</abstract>
