Foliar Micro-nutrition of Vegetable Crops - A Critical Review

Foliar Micro-nutrition is the application of micronutrients to plants by spraying directly onto their leaves. Although it not economical spray macronutrients and through foliar spraying, researchers prefer soil for applications micronutrients. Several researches have demonstrated that method which used deliver required micronutrient in appropriate concentration improve nutrient status along with increased yield quality potential are adapted combining FeSO4 at a dose 0.2%, Calcium nitrate Boron 0.1% ZnSO4 0.2% has revealed 51% increase as compared control potato. Application (0.4%) (0.6%) provides significant impact on growth characteristic Chilli; Zinc Sulfate (0.5%) Borax also shows better result number fruits per plant, fruit length, diameter plant Eggplant. Applying results height, weight head cabbage cultivations. Combined (100 ppm) + Molybdenum (50 60 kg/fed Nitrogen. The showed 38.02% curd cauliflower over control. A study reveals Zn+ (0.1%) B 75 kg/ha potassium combination 31.73% increases watermelon. boron 0.25% zinc 0.5% 31.17% total onion yield. combined MgSO4 (0.5%), MnSO4 okra 31.8% In general this critical review lays an emphasis from point been found show satisfactory than conditions immense vegetable production attributes.
