Description
Summary:Field experiment conducted to find out the effect of soil applied boron on the yield attributes, yield and economics ofsunflower (Helianthus annuus L.) at OUAT, Bhubaneswar revealed that boron @ 1.5 kg/ha recorded highest yield attributing characters such as head diameter (18.6 cm), total number of seeds/capitulam (830), seed (2.10 t/ha), stover (5.28 t/ha) and oil yield (743.6 kg/ha) over B applied @ 1kg/ha. Among the hybrids tested, the productivity was in the descending order of KBSH-44 < KBSH-53
