Effect of Zinc, Copper and Phosphorus Fertilization on the Uptake of Iron, Manganese and Molybdenum by Hybrid Maize

Abstract

The Isberatery experiment was conducted using the loamy sand of Anand to Study the effect of applied Zn. Cu. and heavy deses of P on the centent and uptake of Fe, Mn and Mo by Hybrid Maize (Ganga-5). Addition of Zn reduced Fe and Mn content of maize plant. Application of Cu decreased the uptake of iron. manganese and molybdenum. While P-fertilization decreased Fe, increased Mn and Mo uptake when studied exclusive of other factors.
