- Intervention effect Nitrogen application significantly increased sunflower grain yield, with a 46.1% increase at 300 versus 100 kg ha-1.
- Intervention effect Nitrogen at 300 versus 100 kg ha-1 increased sunflower biological yield by 7.2%.
- Intervention effect Nitrogen at 300 versus 100 kg ha-1 increased sunflower 1000 seeds weight by 28.8%.
- Intervention effect Nitrogen at 300 versus 100 kg ha-1 increased sunflower head diameter by 21.2%.
- Intervention effect Nitrogen fertilizer significantly increased sunflower seed N, P and Zn contents.
- Intervention effect Nitrogen fertilizer did not increase sunflower seed potassium content.
- Intervention effect Nitrogen fertilizer did not increase sunflower seed oil content.
- Intervention effect Foliar zinc at 3 g L-1 increased sunflower grain yield by 21.5% versus the control.
- Intervention effect Foliar zinc significantly increased sunflower seed nitrogen, phosphor and zinc contents.
- Recommendation The authors recommend 300 kg ha-1 N with 3 g L-1 Zn for maximal sunflower grain yield under their experimental conditions.
