Abstract:
The present field experiment was conducted at experimental farm Oilseed Research Station, Latur (M.H) during rabi season 2021-22 with a view to study the “Effect of foliar application of nano-N fertilizer on growth yield, and quality of linseed (Linum usitatissimum L.)”. The experiment was conducted in randomized block design and the treatments was eight with three replications. Results revealed that treatment T₇-50 per cent N (RDN) and 100 per cent P and K through soil + two foliar sprays of 0.4 per cent nano-N at 20 and 40 DAS recorded the highest plant height, number of capsules plant^-1, fresh and dry (g plant^-1), and total chlorophyll content, grain yield (1440.33 Kg ha^-1) and straw yield (2894.92 kg ha^-1) which was significantly superior over all the treatments but was at par with treatment T₈-25 per cent N (RDN) and 100 per cent P and K + three spray of 0.4 per cent nano-N at 20, 40 and 60 DAS.
