Abstract
Investigation was conducted on boron deficient soil to evaluate the response of two groundnut cultivars (BARI Chinabadam-8 and Dhaka-1) to application of three boron’s (B) rate (at 0, 1 and 2 Kg ha 1) and 2 levels of artificial lightening (Light and No-light) on protein, oil and vitamin E contents of groundnut seeds. Results exhibited that 2 kg B ha 1 increased all studied qualitative characters viz., protein, oil and vitamin E contents of groundnut seeds. Application of B also increased the 100 seed weight. In case of artificial lightening, it gave the highest results in respects of protein, oil and vitamin E contents, but decreases the 100 seed weight of groundnut. Improved variety i.e., BARI Chinabadam-8 always gave the best results over the local variety, Dhaka-1 (Maijchaur Badam).
