Boosting Nutrient Uptake in Summer Sesame for Higher Yields
The study looked at how different levels of nitrogen, phosphorus, and biofertilizers affected the nutrient content and uptake of summer sesame plants in South Gujarat. They found that higher amounts of nitrogen and phosphorus led to increased nutrient uptake by the seeds and stems of the plants. Inoculating the plants with azotobacter and phosphate solubilizing bacteria also increased the uptake of nitrogen and phosphorus by the seeds. However, the uptake of potassium was not significantly affected by the biofertilizers. Overall, the study showed that the right combination of nutrients and biofertilizers can improve the nutrient uptake of summer sesame plants, which is important for their growth and development.
