The aim of the present investigation was to determine the influence of Seaweed Liquid Fertilizer (SLF), Humic acid (HA) and combinations of SLF: HA in various concentrations on the growth of Groundnut (Arachis hypogaea). The above plant growth promoters are applied as foliar spray at an interval of twice in a month with the following concentrations such as SLF (1 to 10%), HA (0.1 to 1%) and SLF:HA (1:0.9% to 9:0.1%). The SLF:HA (6:0.4%) was found to be the most effective formulation with increasing growth of shoots, number of branches, total carbohydrate content, total protein content and total chlorophyll content followed by SLF 5% and HA 0.6%. This study helps to formulate an efficient chemical free fertilizer for maximum Agriculture produce.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
