Abstract

An experiment on monitoring of macro and micro nutrients with recommended dose of NPK in rice - wheat cropping system under semi arid eco system was conducted during the peiod 1997–98 to 2000–01 at CSR centre Kanpur. The results of the combined analysis of these experiments revealed that the grainand straw yields and gross retunss increased due to the application of all levels of sulphur, Zinc Chloride or Zinc Oxide and Zinc Sulphate. Total gross returns of grain yields for both the crops in Kharif and rabi seasons were found significant when higher dose of Zinc at 10 kg/ha as basal in the form of Zinc Sulphate with recommended dose of NPK applied. It was 26 percent higher than control. The micronutrients were applied every year in kharif gave higher yields of both grain and straw and also gross rehirn of yields for both seasons than micronutrients applied alternate year in kharif season.
