Abstract

Summary Field experiments were conducted on four barley cultivars (two hulled and two hullless) grown under unirrigated conditions in Varanasi, India, to observe the effect of rate of application of nitrogen on copper concentration and uptake in plants and soils. The copper concentration in both plants and soil decreased with age of crop because of the dilution effect of more vegetative growth. Varieties did not differ in copper concentration of plants but increasing application of nitrogen decreased copper concentration in the plants. Since the hulled varieties yielded more than the hull-less ones, they removed more copper from the soil. Similarly yield was increased linearly by the application of N fertilizer and this led to a linear increase in depletion of available copper.
