“…(1998) [13] reported that dry matter increased with the addition of boron in maize. Similarly, Karaman et al (2017) [5] reported that the application of 20 mg boron kg -1 along with the applications of H.A. (Humic Acid) at the rates of 60 and 120 mg kg -1 , respectively, resulted in the maximum dry matter yields of 50.71 and 51.09 g pot -1 in maize.…”

during Thaipattam (January-February) 2021 on sandy clay loam. Eight treatments were followed with boron nutrition. T1 : Recommended Dose of Fertilizer (RDF = N, P, K, S, Zn), T2 : RDF + 5 kg/ha boron ( Soil application), T3 : RDF + 2.5 kg/ha boron (Soil application) + 0.2% foliar spray at panicle initiation (PI) and flowering, T4 : RDF + 2.5 kg/ha boron (Soil application) + 0.4% foliar spray at panicle initiation (PI) and flowering, T5 : RDF + 2.5 kg/ha boron (Soil application) + 0.6% foliar spray at panicle initiation (PI) and flowering, T6 : RDF + 0.2% foliar spray at panicle initiation (PI) and flowering, T7 : RDF + 0.4% foliar spray at panicle initiation (PI) and flowering, T8 : RDF + 0.6% foliar spray at panicle initiation (PI) and flowering and were tested in randomized block design with three replications. Results indicated that application of RDF + 2.5 kg/ha boron (Soil) + 0.6% foliar spray at PI and flowering (T5) registered higher plant height, dry matter production, panicle length, 1000 grain weight, filled grains panicle -1 and grain yield over the control (T1).

“…50 Foliar HA, SA, and HA + SA spray markedly (p < 0.001) enhanced the yield and its attributes under water stressed conditions (Figure 4a-c). Karaman et al, 51 suggested that HA application might be helpful for enhancing the productivity of the crops under limited water conditions. Its foliar application reduces the impact of water deficiency at both the vegetative and reproductive stages of plants and increases maize yield.…”

Background Humic acid (HA) is an organic acid that is naturally present in soil organic matter and improves nutrient availability and the mechanisms involved in plant growth and development. Likewise, salicylic acid (SA) is an important plant hormone involved in the regulation of plant growth and development. A pot experiment was carried out to determine the effects of individual or combined HA and SA application on growth and yield of maize (Zea mays L.) under drought stress conditions. Two maize hybrids, namely, 30T60 (drought tolerant) and 75S75 (drought sensitive), were grown in semi‐controlled conditions and foliar applied with SA (1 mM), HA (100 mg L−1) and their combination (HA + SA). The plants were exposed to drought stress at the tasseling stage (R1, 60 days after sowing) for 2 weeks, while control plants were given normal irrigation. Results The results showed that HA and SA applications significantly enhanced the gas exchange characteristics (photosynthetic rate, transpiration rate, and stomatal conductance), and antioxidant activity (catalase, guaiacol peroxidase, and superoxide dismutase) of water stressed maize plants. Foliar SA spray significantly increased the photosynthetic efficiency and activity of enzymatic antioxidants closely followed by HA + SA application that ultimately improved the yield and net benefit cost ratio of maize under water deficit conditions. Conclusion Our findings suggest that foliar spraying of SA at the initiation of the reproductive stage is a cost‐effective strategy to obtain a high maize yield under limited water conditions.
