Abstract
A field experiment was conducted on fine loamy soil having marginal Fe status at Main Maize Research Station, Godhra (dist. Panchmahals) of middle Gujarat agroclimatic zone–III for studying the efficacy of multi-micronutrient mixture in improving crop production of maize. The grain and fodder yields as well as yields attributes of maize were higher under the treatment of 1% foliar spray of multimicronutrient mixture having Fe-6%, Mn-1%, Zn- 4% Cu- 0.3% and B-0.5% equivalent to Gujarat govt. notified grade-II (for Fe-deficiency) at 30, 45 and 60 DAS. Also soil application of micronutrient mixture grade having Fe-2%, Mn-0.5%, Zn-5% Cu- 0.5% and B-0.5% equivalent to govt. notified general grade of soil application at the time of sowing as a basal dose was found equally beneficial in increasing yield and uptake of micronutrients by maize.
