“…The increase in leaf count may have improved the efficiency of maize's photosynthetic process and led to the production of more plant dry matter. This was consistent with the earlier results of Barbara et al [9], Latha et al [10] and Ravichandra [11].…”

A field trial was conducted on the crop maize in the during Zaid season of 2022 at Crop Research Farm, Department of Agronomy, SHUATS, Prayagraj (U.P). The trai was carried out to research “Influence of boron, zinc and iron on growth and yield of summer maize. The soil of experimental plot was sandy loam in texture, nearly neutral in soil reaction (pH 6.9), available N (270.81 kg/ha), available P (11.5 kg/ha) and available K (215.9 kg/ha). The trail was laid out in Randomized Block Design with nine treatments each replicated thrice on the basis of one year experimentation.The results showed that the foliar application of boron 0.6% along with 25kg/ha of zinc and 25kg/ha of iron (treatment no. 8) was recorded significantly maximum plant height (205.79 cm), Plant dry weight (179.67 g/plant), Crop growth rate (28.11 g/m2/day) No. of leaves/plant (13.93), No. of cob/plant(2.07), No. of row/cob (14.67), No. of seeds/row (26.00), Test weight (238.0 g), Grain yield (5.40 t/ha), Straw yield (9.60 t/ha), Harvest index (35.97), Gross returns (122400.0 INR/ha), Net return (77210.0 INR/ha) and benefit cost ratio (1.71) as compared to other treatments.

“…The results revealed that the combined treatments increased manganese uptake it might be due to supply of this nutrient through organic manures further these organics might have increased the manganese availability through enhanced mineralization and chelation action which facilitated greater absorption and utilization of manganese. The earlier reports of Latha et al [7] supported the present findings.…”

A field experiment entitled “Long term effect of different nutrient management practices on micro nutrient uptake under rice-rice cropping system" was conducted under field conditions during both kharif and rabi seasons of 2016-2017 and 2017- 2018 at Andhra Pradesh Rice Research Institute and Regional Agricultural Research Station, Maruteru, West Godavari district in the ongoing All India Coordinated Research Project on Long Term Fertilizer Experiment Project. The findings demonstrate that the data regarding influence of long-term use of inorganics, organics and their combination on micronutrient uptake at different growth stages in kharif and rabi during both the years of the study revealed that there was increase significantly with application of 100% RDF in combination with ZnSO4 and FYM @ 5t ha-1. It was on par with that of application of 100 % RDF along with ZnSO4 @ 40 kg ha-1 and significantly superior over other treatments. The application of 50 % NPK + 50 % N through FYM was on par with 100 % RDF. Application of 100 % RDF along with ZnSO4 @ 40 kg ha-1 and application of 100 % NPK though not differ significantly and on par with each other during four seasons of study.

“…The increased iron availability might be due to the role of humic substances in the manure which increased micronutrients availability by preventing their transformation as insoluble hydroxides, chelation action and releasing them in labile forms [25]. A similar finding was also reported in soil by [26] and they found significant influence of Fe-fortified vermicompost on availability of iron due the complexation or chelation action, contribution from manures and prevention from fixation of iron.…”

Aims: The objective of current study was to examine the nutrient release pattern by enriching different organic manures with iron fertilizer at different ratios in regular sampling intervals. Study Design: The design used in this current study was Factorial completely randomized block design with six treatments replicated thrice. Place and Duration of Study: An incubation experiment was carried out in the Department of Soil Science and Agricultural Chemistry, Tamil Nadu Agricultural University, India during December - March 2022. Methodology: An incubation experiment was carried out by enriching inorganic iron fertilizer with three different organics such as FYM, vermicompost and biocompost in two ratios viz., 1:5 and 1:10 at four different sampling intervals 7, 14, 21 and 28 days after incubation and analyzed for various physical and chemical properties to study the iron release pattern. Results: The results revealed that the iron content ranged from 5324 to 8823 mg kg-1. Among all the combinations, the highest nutrient release was found in FeSo4 enriched with vermicompost 1:10 ratio at 21 DAI which is followed by FeSo4 enriched with FYM 1:10 ratio. Conclusion: The present study revealed that the integrated application of organic and inorganic fertilizer significantly improved the iron use efficiency. Only a few work were reported on integrated application of micronutrient at different organic fertilizer rates, however need further studies to validate the reliability.
