“…According to Jatav et al [50], better development of fruit and seeds due to minimum oxidation of indole acetic acid and photosynthate translocation are positive effects of balanced B uptake in plants. Ribonucleic acid metabolism and stabilization of membrane by the balanced uptake of B played an imperative role in the sugar assimilation, resulting in the optimum yield [51].…”

The deficiency of micronutrients and low organic matter (OM) status of soils are major hurdles in the optimum crop yield achievements. Humic substances can play an imperative role in the micronutrient bioavailability and improved crop yield by ameliorating the physicochemical soil properties. consumed as fresh food and in processed form. However, its susceptibility towards micronutrient deficiency causes a significant reduction in yield. That is why a current study was done to examine the influence of different potassium humate (KH) levels, i.e., 0, 5, 10, and 15 kg ha−1 with micronutrients mixture (MC), i.e., 0, 50 (Zn = 2.50, B = 0.75, Fe = 2.50 kg ha−1), 75 (Zn = 3.75, B = 1.125, Fe = 3.75 kg ha−1) and 100% (Zn = 5.0, B = 1.5, Fe = 5.0 kg ha−1) on the yield, biomass, harvesting index and uptake of the micronutrients in tomato. The results showed that increasing the level of K-humate significantly improved the yield (7.4 and 7.17%), total biomass (6.38 and 6.59%), and harvesting the index (0.46 and 0.76%) of tomato. It also enhanced Fe uptake but did not affect B and Zn concentrations in the tomato fruit at 100% MC + 15 kg ha−1 KH over control in the autumn and spring seasons. In conclusion, both levels of K-humate 10 and 15 kg ha−1 and MC 75 and 100% effectively enhance the yield, biomass, harvesting the index, and micronutrients (B, Zn, and Fe) uptake in tomatoes.

“…Essential and non-essential elements are absorbed from the soil by plants in response to a concentration gradient and selective ion absorption or diffusion. The level of absorption of certain elements varies depending on the plant species [3]. The active uptake of metal ions is significantly assisted by root.…”

“…The mechanism is primarily triggered by metal ion absorption in the root tissue, with ions of Co, Cu, Fe, Mn, Mo, Ni, and Zn dissociating from their complex forms at the root surface. The metals have collected significantly in the root apoplast and due to the presence of cellulose, pectins, and glycoprote, heavy metals adsorb on the root surface in cationic form with a negative cell wall [2,3]. Nutrient management based on soil tests has emerged as a crucial concern in efforts to boost agricultural output.…”

In the current study, rhizosphere soil samples were collected from six different locations of rice fields in Jammu, Kathua and Samba districts of Jammu region of UT of Jammu and Kashmir, The soil samples were processed and analysed from their physicochemical characteristics. Soil samples were collected from each sampling site and analysed for Organic Carbon (OC), soil pH, Salinity, Nitrogen, Phosphorus, and Potassium, along with this the micronutrient profiling of the samples was also conducted following the standard protocols. The overall mean results for soil pH level, OC, N,P, and K content of the majority of rice fields in the research locations were favourable for rice production; nevertheless, the ideal pH and NPK levels should be evaluated on a regular basis to ensure the best potential rice harvests.
