Abstract:
The field experiment was conducted on "Effect of foliar application of chemicals on growth and yield of summer green gram (Vigna radiata L. Wilczek)". During the summer season of the year 2020-21 at the research farm of Tirhut College of Agriculture, Dholi (Muzaffarpur). In this trial, eight treatments were used in a randomized block design and replicated three times and the variety used was HUM -16. As a result of the field study, it was found that green turf growth parameters, yield uptake and water conservation were significantly affected by the application of 2% NPK (19:19:19) spray at flower initiation and pod initiation was comparable with treatments such as T6 (100 ppm salicylic acid), T5 (2% potassium nitrate) and T4 (0.2 ppm potassium chloride). However, the lowest parameter was observed in T1 (control).
