Abstract

A field experiment was carried out at Horticultural Research Station, Mondouri, Bidhan Chandra Krishi Viswavidyalaya during 2006-07 and 2007-08 to study the effect of Boron and zinc on growth and seed yield of fenugreek. Zinc was applied in four concentrations (0.1%, 0.2%, 0.3% and 0.4%) and boron was applied in two concentrations (0.1% and 0.2%). The result showed that foliar application of boron @0.1 % and zinc @0.2% twice had been found to be effective in enhancing most of the yield attributes and seed yield of fenugreek. It is also observed that lower concentration is more effective than higher concentration.
