Abstract: A field experiment on the Response of greengram (Vigna radiata L.) to soil and foliar application of zinc sulphate” was conducted during khari 2016 at the Indian Institute of Pulse Research, Regional Centre,UAS, Dharwad. The experiment was laid out in randomized complete block design with ten treatments including application of zinc sulphate @ 5, 7.5 and 10 kg ha-1 along with zinc sulphate spray @ 0.5 and 1 per cent at 20 DAS along with RDF and replicated trice. The results revealed that soil application of zinc sulphate 7.5 kg ha-1 + 0.5 per cent zinc sulphate spray at 20 DAS along with RDF (T6) was found superior in enhancing the grain yield (8.65q ha-1) and haulm yield (19.47 q ha-1) of greengram. Similarly, highest uptake of nutrients (N, P, K and Zn ) by the crop were recorded due to the soil application of zinc sulphate 7.5 kg ha-1 + 0.5 per cent zinc sulphate spray at 20 DAS along with RDF (T6)
