t0“soil and foliar application of boron on wheat productivity”
e1“Results revealed that all B application i.e. 1.0 & 2.0 Kg/ha B application as basal, 0.2% foliar application of B at 2-5% spike initiation, 1.0 & 2.0 Kg/ha B application as basal + 0.2% foliar application of B at 2-5% spike initiation were increased plant height, spikes/m2, spike length, grains/spike and 1,000-grain weight, grain yield, straw yield and nutrient uptake over farmer’s practice (No B)”

- Intervention effect Boron application increased plant height, spikes per square metre and spike length of wheat over the farmer’s practice without boron.
- Intervention effect Boron application increased grains per spike, 1,000-grain weight and grain yield of wheat over the farmer’s practice without boron.
- Intervention effect Basal 2.0 kg/ha B plus 0.2% foliar B at 2-5% spike initiation raised wheat grain yield by 15.1% over the farmer’s practice without boron.
- Observation Basal 2.0 kg/ha B plus 0.2% foliar B at 2-5 spike initiation was the most economical treatment.
- Observation The boron application on wheat recorded net returns of ₹ 23.51 ×103 per ha.
- Observation The boron application on wheat gave a benefit:cost ratio of 1.20%.
