A pot experiment was conducted at CCSHAU, Hisar during the year 2010-
11 to study the effect of zinc fertilization on green gram productivity and
grain quality. Zinc was applied @ 0, 5.5 kg as basal and 0.1% Zn as foliar
application. Seven green gram genotypes viz. Asha, Basanti, Satya, MH-
421, MH 318, and MH-565 were selected for the study. Pods per plant,
seeds per pod and seed weight significantly increased with the application
of Zn which ultimately increased the yield of seed and straw of all the green
gram genotypes. However, application of 5.5 kg Zn ha-1 increased the yield
of straw by 30.8% which was better as compare to foliar treatment. The
maximum Zn concentration in straw and seed (about 5 and 3 folds over
control) was achieved when foliar spray was made. Soil application of Zn
increased the seed crude protein content by 9.96 % over control
