Abstract

The starch, total N, true protein N and RNA-P content and the yield of grain of sorghum cv. CSH-1 grown on calcareous black soils of Vidharba region in 1972-3 were increased by applying 12.5 kg ZnSO4/ha. The increases were enhanced by the application of ZnSO4 + 12.5 kg MnSO4/ha. None of the characteristics were affected by application of Fe either alone or in combination with Zn and/or Mn
