Abstract:
Present investigation “Studies on growth parameters and seed production of Coriander (Corianderum sativum L.) as influenced by foliar application of micronutrients under agro-climatic conditions of Chhattisgarh plains” was conducted during Rabi season 2022-23 at farm of KVK, (Raipur) under department of vegetable science, Indira Gandhi Krishi Vishwavidyalaya, Raipur, Chhattisgarh. The field experiment was conducted in randomized block design with three replications, consisting nine treatments of three micronutrients with different levels including of ZnSO₄ @ 0.4% and 0.5%, CuSO₄ @ 0.4% and 0.5%, FeSO₄ @ 0.4% and 0.5%, ZnSO₄ + CuSO₄ + FeSO₄ @ 0.4% and ZnSO₄ + CuSO₄ + FeSO₄ @ 0.5% as foliar application at pre flowering stage (40 DAS) and pre seed setting stage (60 DAS). The results showed that the application of ZnSO₄ + CuSO₄ + FeSO₄ @ 0.5% gave maximum plant height (78.5cm), primary branch (8.06) and secondary branch (12.56) plant^-1 and days to 50% flowering was also maximum with ZnSO₄ + CuSO₄ + FeSO₄ @ 0.5%.
