Effect of Boron on Nodulation, Dry Matter Production and Quality of Groundnut in Major Groundnut Growing Soils of Madurai District| Chapter 1 | Research Highlights in Agricultural Sciences Vol. 4

 Boron is the yield-confining factor for nut production in arenicolous earth soils of Madurai district, Tamil Nadu. Therefore a field experiment was administered to study the effect of boron on availability of boron on swollen object, dry matter production and status of groundnut in boron-inadequate soil series of the Madurai region in a randomized block design accompanying three replications. Twelve treatments were contained and the results revealed that the request of 15 kg/ha of B as soil application and 0.5 per insignificant value of B as foliar application at detracting stages of crop development along with the urged dose of fertilizers developed in maximum nodule count and dry matter result. Regarding the quality the use of soil (15 kg/ha) and foliar B (0.5%) in addition to RDF recorded the topmost oil and protein content as distinguished to the other situations.
