Other claims from this paper (5)
- Intervention effect Zn and B significantly affected onion growth and yield traits.
- Intervention effect Residual Zn and B significantly affected mungbean growth and yield traits.
- Intervention effect The same nutrient rates gave a 99% mungbean yield benefit versus control.
- Intervention effect Added Zn and B positively influenced their concentrations and uptake in onion bulbs.
- Recommendation The authors recommend Zn at 4 kg ha-1 plus B at 3 kg ha-1 with NPKS for higher onion and mungbean yield.
