EFFECT OF SULPHUR LEVELS AND NAPHTHALENE ACETIC ACID ON GROWTH AND YIELD OF GREENGRAM (VIGNA RADIATA L.)
Also known as green gram, mung bean, or Vigna radiata L. The Zaid and Kharif harvests are when this pulse is most abundant in India.This protein-rich staple can fix atmospheric nitrogen and is composed primarily of plants from the Leguminosae family, which accounts for around 25% of its total mass.It is common for soil nutrient supply to fall short of crop needs, especially for crops with a shorter growth season, such as green gram.Thus, foliar nutrition is expected to be an effective tool for addressing crop nutrition requirements and could lead to increased yields, together with soil treatments timed to coincide with weather patterns, especially rainfall.Because it enhances the quality of food crops, especially legumes, Sulphur is a crucial mineral for the pulse industry.This protein-rich staple can fix atmospheric nitrogen and is composed primarily of plants from the Leguminosae family, which accounts for around 25% of its total mass.Particularly for crops with short maturation periods, like green gram, nutrient input to the soil is often inadequate to meet the growing demand for crops.Thus, foliar nutrition is expected to be an effective tool for addressing crop nutrition requirements and could lead to increased yields, together with soil treatments timed to coincide with weather patterns, especially rainfall.Sulfur is a crucial mineral for pulse development because it enhances the nutritional value of legumes and other food crops.
