Author(s): AS Patel, HN Shelat and JG Talati
Abstract: Analysis of various parameters like proteins, carbohydrates, starch, oil contents etc. are very important for estimating quality of seed. These nutrients are influenced by the available nutrients in soil. In the experiment to study efficacy of potash mobilizing bacteria (KMB) along with graded doses of potash applied in soil, it was found that the highest protein, carbohydrate, starch, oil and β carotene contents of maize cv. GAYMH-1 were recorded in treatment receiving KMB consortium along with soil application @ 60 kg K2O/ha followed by next best treatment of KMB consortium along with 45 kg K2O/ha.
