Abstract:
The aim of present work was to evaluate lef nutrient status of 8 years old guava plants pertaining to soil application of zinc sulphate and ferrous sulphate. Uniform plants planted at 6m X 2m spacing at Research Orchard of Department of Horticulture, CCS Haryana Agricultural University, Hisar were selected for the investigation. Maximum nitrogen concentration was noted with the application of 90 g zinc sulphate. While for ferrous sulphate treatments, maximum nitrogen was analysed with the application of 20 g ferrous sulphate which was which was at par with 30 g ferrous sulphate. Maximum phosphorus content was observed under control treatment and it was at par with 30 g zinc sulphateas well as 90 g zinc sulphate and among ferrous sulphate treatments, maximum content was observed under control treatment as well as 10 g and 20 g ferrous sulphate. Maximum potassium for zinc sulphate treatment and phosphorus for both treatments were observed under control treatment. Highest zinc content was noted with application of 90 g zinc sulphate treatment. While application of 20 g and 30 g ferrous sulphate resulted in highest zinc and iron content, respectively.
