Abstract
This study aimed to evaluate the impact of nutrient seed priming on the nutrient concentration and uptake in soybeans’ and experiment was carried out two consecutive years at research farm of Oilseed Research Station, Latur under VNMKV, Parbhani, during kharif, 2018 and 2019 in randomized block design (RBD) with 12 treatments which were replicated thrice. The soil of experimental field was clayey in texture (Vertisols),The treatments comprises T1: absolute control,T2: Only RDF,T3:RDF + Zn@ 3g kg-1 seed,T4 :RDF + B @ 3g kg-1 seed,T5: RDF+ Fe@ 3g kg-1 seed.,T6: RDF + S @ 3g kg-1 seed,T7: RDF + Zn+ B each @ 3g/kg-1 seed,T8: RDF + Zn+ B +Mo each @ 3g kg-1 seed ,T9:RDF + Zn+ B + Mo + Fe each @ 3g kg-1 seed ,T10: RDF + Zn+ B + Mo + Fe+ S each @ 3g kg-1 seed ,T11:RDF + Rhizobium +PSB each @ 10 ml kg-1 seed ,T12: Without RDF + Zn+ B + Mo + Fe + S each @ 3g kg-1 seed. The results indicated that the priming of Zn+ B + Mo + Fe+ S each @ 3g kg-1 seed along with RDF proved its superiority over rest of treatments, however, Priming with a combination of Zn, B, Mo, Fe, and S along with RDF resulted in a significant increase in nutrient concentration and nutrient uptake of soybean over alone nutrient application and control treatment.
