Other claims from this paper (18)
- Intervention effect Priming or nutrient loading significantly accelerated seed emergence relative to unprimed seed.
- Intervention effect Priming or nutrient loading did not significantly affect flowering or maturity.
- Intervention effect Boric acid loading at 250 ppm increased grain yield by 28% relative to unprimed control.
- Intervention effect Boric acid loading at 250 ppm increased grain yield by 17% relative to water priming.
- Intervention effect Boric acid loading at 250 ppm had grain yield comparable to sodium molybdate at 250 ppm.
- Intervention effect Boric acid loading at 250 ppm had grain yield comparable to boric acid at 500 ppm.
- Mechanism Higher grain yield was attributed to more clusters per plant, grains per pod and hundred grain weight.
- Intervention effect Sodium molybdate loading at 750 ppm produced protein content of 23.3%.
- Intervention effect Mixed nutrient loading produced protein content of 23.3%.
- Intervention effect Sodium molybdate loading at 500 ppm significantly increased fat and metabolic energy.
- Intervention effect Sodium molybdate loading at 500 ppm gave the lowest total ash content.
- Intervention effect Production cost did not vary significantly by treatment.
- Intervention effect Mixed micronutrient loading cost Rs. 61 more than control or water priming.
- Observation Control and water priming had the lowest production cost of Rs. 48855 ha -1.
- Intervention effect Boric acid loading at 250 ppm had the highest benefit to cost ratio of 2.75.
- Intervention effect The benefit to cost ratio under 250 ppm boric acid was comparable to 250 ppm sodium molybdate.
- Intervention effect The benefit to cost ratio under 250 ppm boric acid was comparable to 500 ppm boric acid.
- Recommendation The authors identified 250 ppm boric acid loading as outstanding for growth, development, yield and economics.
