Abstract

A field experiment was conducted during Rabi-2016 to study the effect of seed fortification on growth and seed yield in urbean {Vigna mungo (L.) Hepper}. The experiment consisted of fourteen treatments which were replicated thrice in RCBD design. Micro-and macronutrients mixture of Borax, CaCl2, FeSO4, ZnSO4, MgSO4, water soluble Di-ammonium phosphate fertilizer 12:61:0, Water soluble 19:19:19, water soluble 13:0:45 @1% significantly increased growth attributes, seed yield and benefit cost ratio in urdbean seed production over control.
