Year: 2017
Type: article
Abstract: A field experiment was conducted during the year 2015-16 at Post Graduate Institute Farm, Mahatma PhuleKrishiVidyapeeth, Rahuri, to study the "Effect of seed inoculation of zinc and iron solubilizing micro-organisms on yield and nutrient uptake of wheat in inceptisol. The highest wheat grain yield was significantly increased in treatment T 7 i.e. GRDF + 20 kg ZnSO 4 + 25 kg FeSO 4 + seed inoculation of Fe and Zn solubilizers(45.46 q ha -1 ) which was at par with treatment T 5 (45 q ha -1 ) and T 6 (44.46 q ha -1 ). Total uptake of N, K, Fe, Mn, Zn and Cu significantly increased in treatment of T 7 ,over all the treatments, however total P uptake of was significantly increased in treatment of T 5 , over other treatments except T 4 andT 6 .
