Influence of Zinc, Iron and Manganese Applications on Soil Properties, Protein Content and Sedimenta

Micronutrient lack in plants is becoming more common, specifically in cereals crops around the globe. These deficits influence a loss of yield in addition to deterioration in the pertaining to food quality of the crops. The experiment was completed activity in screen house for Rabi season of 2017-18, Soil Science Department, CCS HAU, Hisar to measure the impact of means and dosages of metallic mineral (Zn), iron (Fe) and manganese (Mn) application on post-harvest soil traits and wheat value. The findings concerning this research illustrated that DTPA-deducible Zn and Mn increased considerably with the adding of Zn and Mn, respectively as distinguished to control. With the application of micronutrients, the sedimentation profit and protein content of wheat two together significantly raised in comparison to the control. Maximum increase in sedimentation profit (54.0) was found when 0.5 % ZnSO4 + 2.5 % urea was used. Whereas, maximum increase in protein content (12.2%) was observed when 0.5 % FeSO4 + 3 % urea was used. Overall, quality of grain improved accompanying the use of micronutrients but there was no important effect of these applications on soil limits. There was no significant alternative in soil pH, soil organic element (SOC), electrical generated power (EC), available nitrogen (N), planet seen at dawn (P), potassium (K) and DTPA-extractable Fe when micronutrients were used as foliar or basal doses.
