Abstract

                                The subject of feeding plants by means other than through the roots has gained much importance in recent years and the method of foliar feeding or foliar nutrition is now adopted in the case of many perennial crops as well as cereals and vegetable crops. Studies on this aspect of plant nutrition has been in progress since 1954 in the Plant Physiology section of the Coimbatore Research Institute and the results obtained on rice plants were presented in two previous papers, (18, 19). The present paper is intended to give a brief account of the responses shown by two other crops, namely ragi (Eleusine coracana) and maize (Zea mays), to this method of supplying nutrients through the foliage.
