Abstract

The year 2020–21 will be remembered for the global COVID-19 pandemic, hence nutrition oriented agriculture systems are required. Therefore, the present studies were conducted during rabi 2019–20 and 2020–21 at Dr YS Parmar University of Horticulture and Forestry Nauni, Solan, H.P. India with an aim to biofortify garden pea with zinc by providing varying level of nutrient doses. The results revealed that T2i.e. 100% RDF + 0.5% ZnSO4.7H2O + Rhizobium was found to be the best treatment in providing maximum yield to the crop along with providing maximum economic returns. Hence, it can be recommended for biofortifying crop with zinc and high yields as well as in improving economics.
