Abstract :Mustard seed is primarily used in the food or condiment industries in the form of either ground seeds or oil, and plays a significant role in agriculture. Especially in the intensive agricultural system where chemical fertilizers are used, little is known the impact of ammonium phosphate (Ammophos, 12% N, 52% P2O5) fertilizer applications on the yield and yield component of mustard under chernozem soil conditions. The objective of this study was to investigate the effects of seven doses of ammonium phosphate fertilizer applications on the seed yield and yield components of two different mustard varieties [Rushen (Brassica juncea (L.) Czern.) and Profi (Sinapis alba L.)] under chernozem soil conditions in Northern Kazakhstan. According to field experiment results, there were significant differences among the treatments in relation to yield and yield components (oil content, dry matter accumulation, NPK uptake, NPK contents in seeds) of mustard varieties. The higher seed yield for the N34.6 P150 treatment in Rushen and N41.5 P180 treatment in Profi than for any of the other rates of ammonium phosphate fertilizer application under the agro-ecological conditions of Akmola region, Northern Kazakhstan.Keywords : Mustard, chernozem soil, nutrients, fertilizer, ammonium phosphate
