Year: 2019
Type: article
Abstract: A field experiment was conducted at the College of Agricultural Technology, Kullapuram - Theni during 2015-2016 on “Effect of foliar application of nutrients and growth regulator on growth and yield of green gram (Vigna radiate L.)”. A randomized block design with eight treatments replicated thrice. Foliar spray treatment with the aqueous solution of nutrients was done at 30 and 45 DAS. Significant increases were recorded in plant height, dry matter accumulation, number of pod plant-1, number of seed plant-1 and seed yield with foliar application of nutrients. Maximum grain yield was recorded under the foliar spray of DAP @ 2% + TNAU Pulse Wonder@ 5kg ha-1 (1%) + NAA 40 ppm at flowering and followed by DAP @ 2% + NAA 40 ppm is the viable nutrient management package to the green gram for getting higher income through higher productivity.
