Abstract


A field experiment was conducted in the alluvial soils of Agricultural Farm Banaras Hindu University to see the effect of soil application of boron, molybdenum and chlo rine (B at 1.2 and 4 kg/ha; Mo at 0.25, 0.50 and 1.00 kg/ha; Cl at 4.8 and 12 Kal ha) in combinations, along with a basal dressing of N and P at 10 and 30 kg/ha res- pectively on the grain yield of gram type-1. Maximum grain yield (17.69 q/ha) was obtained with treatment 8, + Mos+ Cl, which was significantly more than the yield of control (14.30 g/ha) and some of the other treatments also. A significant decrease in grain yield was noted with increasing application of Molybdenum. Main effect of B & CI was not significant, but either of the two when combined with Mo gave significant response to grain yield. Grain yield was also found to be related with the uptake of B. Mo and Cl by the crop.
