Background: Rice bean (Vigna umbellata L.) has recently been notified as a promising pulse crop. It is grown for green manure, green fodder and pulses. Potassium plays a major role in increasing the legume yield and yield components, besides provides tolerance to stress such as high-low temperature and drought. Similarly, iron is important for chlorophyll synthesis and is a key component of the nitrogenase enzyme, which is important for nitrogen fixation.Methods: A field experiment was conducted during kharif season of 2020 at Crop Research Farm, Department of Agronomy, Sam Higginbottom University of Agriculture, Technology and Sciences, Prayagraj (U.P). India. Study the ‘‘Effect of potassium and iron levels on growth and yield of kharif Rice bean (Vigna umbellata L.)”. The present experiment was laid out in randomized block design (RBD).Result: The results revealed that the application of 20 kg K2O/ha + 15 kg Fe/ha recorded maximum plant height (111.17 cm), branches per plant (23.40), nodules per plant at 60 DAS (35.67), plant dry weight (41.33 g/plant), pods per plant (26.20), seeds per pod (7.93), seed yield (1.67 t/ha), stover yield (3.95 t/ha), harvest index (29.69%), net return (Rs 81,155.6/ha) and B: C ratio (2.43). It can be concluded that 20 kg K2O /ha + 15 kg Fe/ha was found more productive as well as economic for Rice bean.

“…Combination of Fe with nicotinamine, a metal ligand, gave even better results in enhancing the Fe content in the grains (He et al 2013;Yuan et al 2013). The research also indicated that the foliar spray of FeSO 4 on Vigna radiata was found to promote plant height, branch per plant, number of grains per pods and number of nodules in the roots (Saini and Singh 2017). In another report, it was noted that spray of Fe was found to increase the number of pods per plant in Vigna radiata (Soni and Kushwaha 2020).…”

Microbial Biofertilizers and Micronutrient Availability

Minerals and organic materials present in soil are responsible for regulatory activity of cell organelles. Micronutrients such as zinc, boron, copper, iron, manganese, molybdenum and chlorine are readily absorbed and found in lower concentrations in plant tissues. Micronutrients reduce ion toxicity, preserve water balance, improve mineral uptake and assimilation, modify various gas exchange traits and reduce oxidative stress in plants. Plants contain sufficient micronutrients that possess greater tolerance capacity towards abiotic stress. The response of micronutrient application to various abiotic stresses depends on the crop, growth stage and concentration of the nutrient solution. This chapter explains the significance of micronutrients in crop production and their ability against the abiotic stress in plants.

“…A balance fertilization of both macro and micro nutrients are equally important for achieving profitable yield of crops [7]. Iron is an essential nutrient for crop growth involved in chlorophyll synthesis and chloroplast development [8]. Although iron content both in soil and plants are high than S content and even P, yet its availability is low for plants and hence Fe deficiency is a common problem [9].…”

Fertilization of Mung bean (Vigna radiataL) is one of the most crucial management technique which effects crop growth and yield. Therefore the present study was carried out at Agricultural Research Station Kohat under rain fed conditions during spring 2017, to assess the response of mung bean (Vigna radiateL.) to three levels of iron (0, 2 and 5 kg ha-1) and three levels of zinc (0, 5 and 10 kg ha-1). The experiment was laid out in randomized complete design with split plot arrangement and replicated three times. The results revealed that application of Fe at the rate 5 kg ha-1and Zn at the rate 10 kg ha-1significantly increased biological yield, grain yield, straw yield, nodule numbers and weight by 5624 kg ha-1, 968 kg ha-1, 4655 kg ha-1, 35 and 0.67g respectively whereas the interaction was found non- significant. The nitrogen content in grains and straw was also significantly increased by 2.22% and 3.56% respectively with application of Fe at 5 kg ha-1and Zn at 10 kg ha-1, however their interaction was also found non-significant. Similarly the plant nitrogen uptake was also significantly increased by 323.33 kg ha-1with application of Fe at 5 kg ha-1and Zn at 10 kg ha-1.It was concluded that Fe and Zn enhanced mung bean productivity.
