Abstract

The present investigation entitled “Effect of foliar application of different nutrients on biochemical changes of wheat, under sodic soil” was carried out at main experiment station (MES) of Acharya Narendra Dev University of Agriculture & Technology, Narendra Nagar, Kumarganj, Ayodhya (U.P). During Rabi season 2017-18. The experiment was laid in field condition with randomized block design and three replications& variety NW-1014. Seven treatments comprised of five different nutrients as zinc sulphate (0.5%) and (0.7%), boric acid (0.2%) and (0.4%) and potassium nitrate (0.1%) and (0.3%) applied as foliar application at 35 DAS of crop growth. A controlled set was also maintained. The observations were recorded parameters biochemical changes at 40, 60 and 90 DAS. All the foliar application of nutrients increased the growth characters and biochemical changes superior over control. Total chlorophyll content and total carbohydrate was found significantly superior with foliar application of 0.7% zinc sulphate at all the stages of crop over control.
