Abstract
A pot experiment was carried out to study the
effect of foliar application of un-chelated micronutrients, amino acids and
organic fertilizer of amino acid chelated micronutrients on yield contributing
traits in chilli var. Phule Jyoti during 2015 and 2016 at the Yeola, District
Nasik. The micronutrients like Copper, Iron, Manganese, Molybdenum, Zink, were
organically chelated with seed amino acids. Forty day’s old seedlings of chilli
were transplanted in pots. In all six treatments T0-untreated
control plans sprayed with distilled water, T1- 2.0 % unchelated
micronutrients solution, T2- 2.0 % amino acids solution, T3-
1.0 % amino acid chelated micronutrients organic fertilizer, T4- 1.5
% amino acid chelated micronutrients organic fertilizer and T5- 2.0
% organic fertilizer of amino acid chelated micronutrients were applied through
foliar spray on 15th and 30th days after transplantation.
The results based on two years mean revealed that out of six different
treatments, the application of micronutrients chelated organically with seed
amino acids at the concentration of 1.5 and 2.0% resulted in more fruits per
plant, increased length and weight of fruits and more total yield of fruits per
plant. The untreated control plants sprayed with distilled water recorded the
lowest fruit yield. The use of amino acid chelated micronutrients fertilizer
proves to be an efficient for enhancing productivity in chili.
