Abstract

Field experiments were conducted to study the effects of foliar sprays of multimicronutrients on recovery from chlorosis and yield losses in groundnuts. The foliar application of iron (0.5%) aqueous solution of iron sulphate), and multimicronutrients (0.5% iron sulphate, 0.2% zinc shlphate, 0.2% manganous suphate, 0.05% copper sulphate, 0.05% boric acid and 0.01% sodium molybdate) caused regreening of chlorotic leaves, increased chlorophyll contents and pod and haulm yields significantly.
