Abstract

In order to find out the response of soil and foliar application of zinc and iron fertilization on Sunflower (Helianthus Annus L.) yield and economics. A field experiment was conducted during the kharif 2012at Agricultural College Farm, Raichur, the results revealed that, yield and yield components of sunflower were influenced favourably by soil application of ZnSO4@ 10 kg ha-1 + Foliar spray of FeSO4@ 0.5 % along with RDF and FYM @ 8 t ha-1 recorded significantly highest grain yield (2,268 kg ha-1), oil yield (937 ha-1), oil content (41.3%) and test weight (5.47 g). The growth parameters of sunflower were also influenced favourably with soil application of ZnSO4 @ 10 kg ha-1 + Foliar spray of FeSO4@ 0.5 % along with RDF and FYM @ 8 t ha-1, dry matter production (106.8 g plant-1) and plant height (189.2 cm), over other treatment combinations. The highest net returns of Rs.58, 453ha-1 and B: C (3.46) was recorded in soil application of ZnSO4 @ 10 kg ha-1 + Foliar spray of FeSO4@ 0.5 % along with RDF and FYM @ 8 t ha-1 to RDF (2.68).

8 of 10 groups shown: named compounds and organisms first, then groups whose results differ (checked claim by claim), then those with positive and negative results, then the smaller groups.

Claims are grouped by organism, treatment and what was measured or targeted. A paper counts as positive when any of its claims in the group is positive.
