Author(s): V Sujatha and SVS Gangadhara Rao
Abstract: Field studies were carried out at Agricultural Research Station, Yellamanchili, Visakhapatnam Dist., Andhra Pradesh during rabi, 2017-18 to reveal the effect of foliar nutrition of nitrogen and potash through urea and Muriate of potash on growth, yield and economics of sesame with eight treatments replicated thrice in randomized block design. The results revealed that application of 100% RDF as soil application + Urea @ 2% foliar spray at flowering stage & capsule formation stage gave significantly higher seed yield and monetary returns followed by 100% RDF as soil application + Muriate of Potash (MOP) @ 2% foliar spray at flowering stage & capsule formation stage.
