Abstract
The objective of this study is to describe the nutrient content, uptake, quality of biofortified pearl millet [Pennisetum glaucum (L.) R. Br.] and fertility status of soil as influenced by fertilization of potassium and zinc. The experiment comprising of four levels of potassium viz., 0, 40, 60 and 80 kg K2O ha-1 and three levels of zinc viz., 0, 10 and 20 kg Zn ha-1 and the experiment was laid out in Factorial Randomized Block Design and replicated thrice. The results revealed that the nutrient content, uptake, quality and yields were significantly influenced by the various levels of potassium and zinc. The application of potassium 80 kg K2O ha-1 and zinc 20 kg Zn ha-1 significantly increased the nutrient content, uptake, quality and yield of pearl millet.
