A field experiment was conducted at the experimental farm of Sher-e-Bangla Agricultural University, Sher-e-Bangla Nagar, Dhaka-1207, Bangladesh during the period from April, 2013 to July, 2013 to study the growth and yield of Mungbean as influenced by potassium (K) and sulphur (S). Four levels of K (0, 15, 25 and 35 kg ha-1) and three levels of S (0, 3 and 6 kg ha-1) were used in the study.The results reveald that grain and stover yield of mungbean increased with increasing levels of K and S.The maximum significant grain and stover yield were obtained with the treatment combinations K2S2 (25 kg K ha-1 + 6 kg S ha-1 ) and the same treatments combinations gave the highest plant height,  number of branch plant-1, yield attributes like  number of pods plant-1, number of grains pod-1, weight of 1000 seeds.
