“The number of spikes per plant (6.60), number of grains per spike (41.00), grain yield (5.30 t ha-1) and straw yield (6.43 t ha-1) were recorded significantly highest under the treatment T8 (T4 + 0.2% foliar spray with zinc sulphate at heading stage) as comparison to other treatments and was statistically at par with T6, T9 and T7 while the treatment T1 recorded significantly lowest grain and straw yield.”
