Effects of Zinc Application on Yield and Some Yield Components in Peanut Arachis hypogaea in the Easthern Mediterranean Region
Abstract
The effect of soil and foliar Zn fertilization on two varieties of peanut’s Arachis hypogaea yield and some yield components were examined in this study. Soil applications of Zn doses were 0, 10, 20 and 40 kg ha-1 whereas 0, 0.5, 1 and 1.5 kg ha-1 Zn were sprayed to leaves. Applications of dose amounts of Zn lead to remarkable increase in yield and 100-seed weight. The effect of Zn treatment found to be statistically important at P
