Abstract:
A field experiment was conducted at Agronomy farm, of S.K.N. College of Agriculture, Jobner (Rajasthan) during kharif 2020 on loamy sand soil, which consist ten treatments of foliar nutrition and was tested in randomized block design with three replications. Results indicated that application of RDF+ DAP 2% spray at FI, RDF + MOP 2% spray at FI, RDF+ urea 2% spray at FI, RDF + Fe chelate 0.5% spray at FI, RDF + Zn chelate 0.5% spray at FI and RDF + B chelate 0.5% spray at FI remaining at par with each other significantly increased nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium content in grain and stover were significantly increased due to application of RDF+ DAP 2% spray at FI. However, zinc, content in grain and stover was significantly increased due to application of RDF+ Zn chelate 0.5% spray at FI, iron content in grain and stover was maximum in RDF+ Fe chelate 0.5% spray at FI and boron content in grain and stover in RDF+ B chelate 0.5% spray at FI and nitrogen, phosphorus, potassium, zinc, iron and zinc uptake by grain and stover of hybrid pearl millet were significantly increased due to application of RDF+ DAP 2% spray at FI.
