Study the Effect of Foliar Application of Nano chelate Molybdenum Fertilizer on the Yield and Yield Components of Peanut

Abstract

In order to study the effect of foliar application of nano chelate molybdenum fertilizer on the yield and yield components of peanut, Factorial experiment was conducted in the form of randomized complete block design with 3 replications with the amount of nitrogen fertilizer in three levels (60, 30, 0 kg per ha) and nano chelate molybdenum fertilizer as foliar application containing four levels (3, 2, 1, 0 grams per liter) in Astaneh Ashrafieh city located in the East Gilan province in the crop year of 2012. The results of analysis of variance showed that nano chelate molybdenum has a significant effect on the traits such as plant height, number of pods per plant, number of ripe pods per plant, hundred seed weight, seed number per plant, seed length and seed and pods yield and the number of lateral branches and the biological performance. Also the results of average comparison of nano chelate molybdenum fertilizer different values showed that pods and seed highest yield is obtained 2320 and 3715 kg per hectare in manure treatment of 3 g of molybdenum per liter.
