Abstract

Field experiments conducted in a red loamy sand soil (Typic Ustorthent) to study the effect of zinc and iron on samai revealed that the samai responded well to the application of micronutrients and the highest grain yield of 835 kg ha registered at ZnSO, 20 kg ha' with FeSO, @ 10 kg ha'. The same two levles also individually accounted for higher mean net return. The availability of Fe increased with Fe levels while application of Zn decreased the availability of Fe in the soil.
