Abstract:

The filed study was “Influence by various treatments of micronutrient of content and uptake grain and stover of pearl millet crop” was carried out during kharif season of the year 2016, at College Agronomy Farm, B. A. College of Agriculture, Anand Agricultural University, Anand. Fe and Zn content in grain of pearl millet was improved due to application of Zn and Fe treatments. Application of 25 kg ZnSO4 ha-1 + 1.0 kg Fe ha-1 (T8) increased 20.2 and 19.6 percent Fe and Zn content of grain respectively over control. To Significantly higher grain uptake of Fe (118.32 g ha-1) was found with application of 1.5 kg Zn ha-1 + 50 kg FeSO4 (T5) ha-1 as compared to control (T1), but it was par with the rest of treatments. Application of 25 kg ZnSO4 ha-1 + 1.0 kg Fe ha-1 (T8) gave higher uptake of Zn (64.98 g ha-1) as compare to 0 kg Zn ha-1 + 50 kg FeSO4 ha-1 (T2) and control (T1), while rest treatments were at par with T8.Improvement in Zn and Fe content of straw was observed due to application of Zn and Fe. Significantly higher content of Fe (70.75 mg kg-1) was found with treatment 25 kg ZnSO4 ha-1 + 50 kg FeSO4 ha-1 (T10), which was at par with all treatments barring control. Treatments 25 kg ZnSO4 ha-1 + 0 kg Fe ha-1 (T6), 25 kg ZnSO4 ha-1 + 0.5 kg Fe ha-1 (T7) and 25 kg ZnSO4 ha-1 + 1.5 kg Fe ha-1 (T10), produced higher content of Zn over the control. Treatments of zinc and iron had significant effect on iron and zinc uptake of straw. Application of 25 kg ZnSO4 ha-1 + 50 kg FeSO4 ha-1 (T10) recorded higher removal of Fe (463.83 g ha-1) and Zn (47.87 g ha-1) over control (T1).
