Response of micronutrients and urea foliar spray on yield and nutrient uptake of safflower (Carthamus tinctorius L.) in Chhattisgarh plan
Author(s): Vinay Kumar Samadhiya
Abstract: The present investigation was conducted in order to augment yield and yield attributes of safflower through foliar spray of micronutrients combination and nitrogen foliarapplication along with General Recommended dose GRD(55:25:20). The experiment was carried out during rabi2013-14 and 2014-15 at the Research Farm, Indira Gandhi Krishi Vishwavidyalaya, Raipur, Chhattisgarh in randomized block design with three replications and twelve treatments namely absolutely control, 100% GRD (withoutspray),100% GRD with tap-water spray, 100% GRD+ 1% N foliar spray, 100% GRD+ 0.2% Fe foliar spray, 100% GRD+ 0.5% Zn foliar spray,100%GRD+ 0.3% Mnfoliar spray, 100% GRD+Fe 0.2% + Mn 0.3% foliar spray, 100% GRD+ Fe 0.2%+ Zn 0.5% foliar spray, 100% GRD+ Mn 0.3%+ Zn 0.5% foliar spray, 100% GRD+Fe 0.2% + Mn 0.3%+ Zn 0.5% foliar spray and 100% GRD Fe 0.2% + Mn 0.3%+ Zn 0.5% + 1% ureafoliar spray. The treatment100%GRD + Fe 0.2% + Mn 0.3%+ Zn 0.5% + 1% ureafoliar spray would be a sound combination of nutrients to get higher capitulum plant-1, seed, number of seeds capitulum-1 seed and stover yields, and sustained the soil physico-chemical properties. The treatments Fe 0.2% + Mn 0.3%+ Zn 0.5% + 1% urea foliar spray with GRD and Fe 0.2% + Mn 0.3%+ Zn 0.5% with GRDwere superiorto application of GRD alone with respect to capitulum plant-1, number of seeds capitulum-1 seed and stover yields, uptake of macronutrientsnitrogen, phosphorus and micronutrients iron, manganese and zinc by safflowerplant and increases seed yield by 28.24 percent over GRD alone.
