Vegetable Micronutrient Formulation
- Recommended for all vegetable crops at different doses
- Can be mixed with any fungicide or insecticide
- Contains most of the micronutrients such as Zn, B, Fe, Cu,Mn, Mo and Cl
- Contains most of the secondary nutrients such as Ca, Mg, S and K
- Enhances fruit quality in terms of fruit appearance, fruit keeping quality and taste
Salt Tolerant acid lime variety “Tenali”
Salient Features
- Growth is vigorous at 2.5 dSm-1 and minimum reduction at 5.0 dSm-1
- Yields reduction at 5.0 dSm-1 was about 25% whereas in Gudur it was 36.2% and in local variety it was 44.5 %.
- Number of fruits and fruit weight is more compared to other two varieties.
- Salinity threshold value is higher (4.6 dSm-1) compared to other two varieties
- The activity of H2O2 detoxifying enzyme catalase increased by 9 fold in 5.0 dSm-1 stressed Tenali where as it was lower in Gudur variety.
