Abstract
In Pakistan, one of main cause of low production of wheat is lack of proper fertilizer management especially micronutrients which plays crucial role in growth and yield of wheat. So, foliar feeding of micronutrients may be used as supplement for obtaining higher yield. Demo-trials were carried out at a district of Punjab, Toba Tek Singh during in 2010-2011 to determine if micronutrient application is required or not to maximize wheat yields. Each site experiment was laid out according to Randomized Complete Block Design containing two treatments i.e. control (recommended NPK fertilizer alone) and treated (foliar application of 250, 500, 750 and 1000 ml acre-1 micronutrients mixture along with NPK fertilizer). Comparatively best results regarding yield and composition of grain were obtained with application of multi-nutrients foliar spray @ 1000 or 750 ml acre-1. Moreover, significant improvement in BCR and VCR and increase in net income from the same land made this technology economically viable and beneficial for the farmers of the area. All these outcomes motivated farmer community to follow technology of foliar feeding of multi-nutrients to raise the crop production.
