Responses of various sources of zinc and application mode on nutrient content, uptake of grain and straw of wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) under timely sowing crop

Abstract

This study was carried out as a field experiment at Shri Durga ji Post-graduate College Chandeshwar Azamgarh, Uttar Pradesh, India, during the rabi season in 2021–2022 and 2022–2023. The Examining various micronutrient management strategies and providing recommendations for micro fertilizers that are both economical and based on plant needs. These approaches provide principles and tools for supplying different dose of Zinc for crop nutrients to achieve higher yield. These methods not only aim to modify micro nutrient dose of the crops but also supply at optimal rate or dose and timely to achieve higher yield and nutrient efficiency by the crop. The region where wheat is grown One of the main issues facing the wheat region is a zinc shortage. The five treatment and nutrient management options were used in the research experiment with Zn being applied in various doses, T1 -Control: seed soaking with distilled water (6 hours) and drying for 24 hours at NTP in shade +No. Zn addition T2- Seed soaking with 4% solution of ZnSo4 (6 hours) and drying for 24 hours at NTP in shade, T3 Seed soaking with 8% solution of ZnSo4 (6 hours) and drying for 24 hours at NTP in shade T4- 26 kg of ZnSo4/ ha. As basal before sowing and T5 28 kg of ZnSo4/ ha. As basal before sowing. These treatments were replicated four time in a randomized block design in different plots. The results of the experiment indicate that significantly higher values of content and uptake parameters (such as a Nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium and zinc content and uptake of grain and straw). The significantly higher nitrogen, phosphorus potassium and zinc content is wheat was recorded with treatment T5 (28 kg of ZnSO4/ ha. As basal before sowing) over rest of the treatments except T4 (26 kg of ZnSO4/ ha. As basal before sowing). The also Application of T5 (28 kg of ZnSO4/ ha. As basal before sowing) recorded maximum N, P and K and Zn uptake which was significantly higher T1, T2, and T3 treatments, except T4 (26 kg of ZnSO4/ ha. As basal before sowing) during 2021-22 and 2022-23 experimentations.
