The field experiment was taken with sixteen treatments, eight each for Zn and Fe and was replicated thrice under randomized block design. The mode of Zn and Fe application was of three types viz. soil (25 kg ZnSO4 and 50 kg FeSO4 ha-1, respectively), foliar (0.5% ZnSO4 and 1.0% FeSO4, correspondingly) and soil+foliar (20 kg ZnSO4 ha-1 + two foliarenSoil ScienceStudyAGRONOMIC AND PHYSIOLOGICAL APPROACHES FOR BIOFORTIFICATION OF WHEAT GRAIN WITH ZINC AND IRON IN Typic Ustochrept SOILS OF MIDDLE GUJARATThesis
