Nita S Goswami, MP Chaudhari and DR Patel
A field experiment was conducted at Agronomy Instructional Farm, Sardarkrushinagar Dantiwada Agricultural University, Sardarkrushinagar during summer season of 2016 to, “different nutrient levels of nitrogen, iron and zinc on growth and yield of summer forage pearlmillet (Pennisetum glaucum)” There were Four levels of N viz., 80(N1), 100(N2), 120(N3) and 140(N4) kg ha-1, two levels of Fe viz., (Fe1) 2 and 9 (Fe2) 4 kg ha-1 and two levels of Zn viz., 1.5(Zn1) and 3(Zn2) kg ha-1 were tried in factorial randomised block design with three replications. With uniform rates of phosphorus at 60 kg/ha, respectively. Application of 140 kg N/ha, 4 kg Fe/ha and 3 kg Zn/ha recorded Significantly the highest values of crude protein content and crude protein yield, nitrogen content and its uptake, zinc content and its uptake, iron content and its uptake and available nitrogen, iron, zinc But in case of crude fibre content highest value was observed by 80 kg N/ha, 2 kg Fe/ha, 1.5 kg Zn/ha in first, second and third cuts.
