At the Department of Agronomy's Crop Research Farm, SHUATS, Prayagraj, a field experiment was carried out in the month of Zaid 2022. (U.P). The soil in the experimental plot had a sandy loam texture, a pH of 7.1 that was almost neutral, a low level of organic carbon (0.36%), and low availability of the nutrients N, P, K (171.48 kg/ha, 15.2 kg/ha, and 232.5 kg/ha, respectively). Ten treatments, each replicated three times, were used in the experiment, which was set up using a randomised block design over the course of a year. The treatments which are T1: Sugar-75 + 0.1 % boron foliar application, T2: Sugar-75 + 0.2 % boron foliar application, T3: Sugar-75 + 0.3 % boron foliar application, T4: Madhuri + 0.1 % boron foliar application, T5: Madhuri + 0.2 % boron foliar application, T6: Madhuri + 0.3 % boron foliar application, T7: Misthi + 0.1 % boron foliar application, T8: Misthi + 0.2 % boron foliar application, T9: Misthi + 0.3 % boron foliar application, T10: Control - N:P:K-120:60:40(kg/ha) are used. The results showed that treatment T9-Misthi + 0.3% boron foliar application was recorded significantly higher growth parameters like Plant height (175.5 cm), Plant dry weight (141.6 g/plant) at 80 DAS and highest Crop growth rate (22.1 g/m2/day) at 60-80 DAS. However, yield attributes and yield parameters like No. of Cobs/plant (1.81), No. of Grains/Cob (617.7), No. of Rows/cob (14.37), Seed index (68.4 g), cob length (18.5 cm), Grain yield (9.5 t/ha), Stover yield (15.4 t/ha) were recorded with the treatment T9-Misthi+ 0.3 % boron foliar application.
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.
