| Abstract/Description: | It is widely accepted that deficiency of macro (nitrogen) and micronutrients (zinc,copper etc.) affects the plant growth and development which cause a significantthreat to crop production and food security. The Indian Farmers FertilizerCooperative (IFFCO) developed nano-urea (nano-N), nano-zinc (nano-Zn), andnano-copper (nano-Cu) liquid fertilizer formulations to enhance the crop yields,simultaneously addressing the nutrient deficiency, without causing toxicity.Therefore, this study was formulated to evaluate the effectiveness of nano-N(nano-urea), nano-Zn, and nano-Cu at varying N levels [0, 50, 75, and 100% of therecommended rates of nitrogen (RRN)] on maize-wheat and pearl millet-mustardsystems during 2019–20 and 2020–21. The results exhibited that the applicationof nano-N + nano-Zn with 100% RRN exhibited significantly higher grain yields inmaize (66.2–68.8%), wheat (62.6–61.9%), pearl millet (57.1–65.4%), and mustard(47.2–69.0%), respectively, over absolute control plots and combinations of threenano-fertilizers like nano-N + nano-Zn + nano-Cu applied plots. This was mainlyattributed to the higher N and Zn uptake by the crops. However, 75% RRN withnano-N + nano-Zn also produced comparable yields. |
