The treatments consist of Zinc soil application (2.5,5 kg/ha) and Zinc foliar application (0.3, 0.6%) along Boron (0.3%) and Iron (0.3%) along with control. The experiment was layout in Randomized Block Design with ten treatments each replicated thrice. Higher plant height (185.19cm), maximum plant dry weight (92.86 g) and the yield attributes namely test weight (15.50g), grains/earhead (1297.67), grain yield (3.03t/ha), stover yield (4.16t/ha) was with treatment 9 [Zinc 2.5ka/ha + Zinc 0.3% + B 0.3% + Fe 0.3%].
