Other claims from this paper (14)
- Intervention effect Water spray did not significantly affect studied sesame parameters.
- Intervention effect Boron application significantly increased sesame boron uptake, antioxidant activity and theoretical oil content.
- Intervention effect Thirty mg L−1 boron at flowering and capsule formation increased seed yield by 26.75%.
- Intervention effect The same treatment increased seed boron uptake by 64.08%.
- Intervention effect The same treatment increased stover boron uptake by 69.25%.
- Intervention effect The same treatment produced the highest AOA at 69.41%.
- Intervention effect The same treatment yielded a benefit-cost ratio of 2.63.
- Intervention effect Boron at 30 mg L−1 gave the maximum sesame yield and boron uptake.
- Intervention effect Boron at 30 mg L−1 significantly increased theoretical oil content.
- Intervention effect Twenty mg L−1 boron produced boron agronomic efficiency of 5.25.
- Intervention effect Twenty mg L−1 boron produced crop recovery efficiency of 30.56.
- Intervention effect Thirty mg L−1 boron produced boron agronomic efficiency of 4.96.
- Intervention effect Thirty mg L−1 boron produced crop recovery efficiency of 26.11.
- Recommendation The authors recommend 30 mg L−1 boron at flowering and capsule formation to improve sesame yield, uptake and returns.
