Abstract:
A field experiment was conducted at College of Agricultural Technology, Theni to study the effect of fish amino acid and egg amino acid as foliar application to increase the growth and yield of green gram during 2018-2019. The experiment was laid out in Randomized block design (RBD) with three replications and eight treatments viz., control (T₁), foliar spray of egg amino acid 0.5 % (T₂), egg amino acid 1.0 % (T₃), egg amino acid 1.5 % (T₄), fish amino acid 0.5 % (T₅), fish amino acid1.0 % (T₆), fish amino acid 1.5 % (T₇) and DAP 2.0 % (T₈). The results revealed that foliar application significantly influenced the growth and yield of greengram. Fish amino acid 1.0 % foliar spray at 15 DAS, 30 DAS and 45 DAS (T₆) was recorded higher growth and yield parameters.
