| Abstract | ||
| Spraying pigeon pea plants with Fe, Mn and Zn at 100 or 200 mg/l increased average pod number/plant, total fresh weight and seed yield compared with control (unsprayed). Mn at 100 mg/l gave the highest fresh yield and seed yield/feddan. Also, spraying pea plants with Mn at 100 mg/l increased vine yield as green fresh forage (16.35 ton/fed) followed by spraying pea plants with Zn at 100 mg/l (15.90 ton/fed). | ||
