Abstract

Application of Mn, Zn, B and Cu on a sandy loam soil of medium fertility resulted in a general rise in the grain yield of wheat. The effect of soil application of Mn and B was significant. Within the foliar treatments Mn gave the maximum grain yield. The straw yield was highest with Cu applied to soil and Zn through foliage. Beneficial effects on height and dry matter accumulation of plant were observed with boron spray and soil application of Zn and on protein content of grain with the former treatment as well as Cu and Mn given to the soil. The highest net profit per hectare resulted from the soil application of boron. Foliar spray of micronutrients was somewhat less effective, zinc giving the maximum net profit amongst them.
