Nitrogen, Phosphorus, Potassium, Zink, Iron, Boron, Mn, Mg, Ca, S, Cu etc. Not only these, but it also contains plant growth hormones like Gibbrelic acid and Cytokines. Novel also contains bacteria which can improve soil health. Novel can be useful in different stages of plant growth e.g. vegetative development, flowering, fruit setting, fruit development etc. Novel can be use in different crops in different stages by various methods like fertigation, drenching, foliar spray, injection, cone feeding etc. When the knowledge and adoption level of farmers and their intervention ways of nutrient management practices are known, it can lead to more refined approaches of control measures considering their own methods.
