Abstract: Coriander (Coriandrum sativum L.) belongs to family Apiaceae is a native of Mediterranean region and is extensively grown in India. In order to study the effect of foliar spray and soil application of micronutrients on major nutrient content and uptake of coriander, the present investigation was undertaken. The highest nutrient content (1.64, 0.27, 1.69 and 0.26 % N, P, K and S respectively) of coriander was obtained with the application of ZnSO4 @ 20 kg ha-1 along with 100 per cent RDF (T6). However, the highest N uptake (27.57 kg ha-1) of coriander was obtained with the application of ZnSO4 @ 0.5 per cent foliar spray along with 100 per cent RDF (T5) and P, K and S uptake (4.43, 28.01 and 4.24 kg ha-1 respectively) of coriander was obtained with the application of ZnSO4 @ 20 kg ha-1 along with 100 per cent RDF (T6).
