Abstract

A research trial was planned to find out the effect of foliar application of Nitrogen (N), Potassium (K) and Zinc (Zn) solutions on the growth of wheat cultivar (variety) Ghazanive-98. The experiment was conducted at Agriculture Research Institute Turnab- Peshawar Pakistan during 2002-2003 and data was recorded on emergence of plants m -2 , number of tillers m -2 , plant height (cm), number of days to anthesis and number of number of spikes m -2 . The statistical analysis showed that number of plants emerged m -2 , number of tillers m -2 , plant height (cm) and number of spikes m -2 were significantly affected while number of days to anthesis was not affected significantly by foliar treatments. Maximum emergence m -2 (309), number of tillers (527) m -2 , plant height (100.50cm) and number of spikes (238) m -2 were recorded in those plots which were sprayed with 0.5% N, 0.5% K and 0.5% Zn solutions two times while minimum emergence m -2 (130), number of tillers (263)m -2 , plant height (75.25cm) were recorded in control plots and minimum number of spikes (123)m -2 was recorded in plots sprayed with 0.5% K solution two times. It was concluded that growth performance of wheat was highly influenced by the application of two times spray of 0.5 % N, 0.5% K and 0.5% Zn solutions.
