| Experiment Background | Eggplant (Solanum melongena L.) belonging to the family Solanaceae is the native of India and is one of the most popular and widely grown crops of commercial and dietary significance in the world. It is popularly known as brinjal in India and aubergine in France and United Kingdom. It is an annual herbaceous plant with semi-erect or semi-spreading growth habit and it is classified as an often or facultative crosspollinated. It can be grown under a wide range of soil and temperature conditions but the most optimum temperature range for its record yield is 21 to 27°C. India ranks second to China in area and production in the world accounting 7.11 lakh hectare with annual production of 135.58 lakh tonnes and productivity of 19.1 metric tonne per hectare. Foliar fertilization has several advantages, can be applied throughout the growing season, which enables to spray with small quantity and composition of the nutrient solution, appropriate to the specific requirements in different phases of the crop development. Foliar applications may sometimes facilitate to the rapid absorption of mineral elements, avoiding the occurrence of soil interactions that may limit root uptake due to e.g.,nutrient immobilization in the soil. Additionally, foliar fertilization may stimulate the capability of the root system to absorb nutrients from the soil solution. Nutrient uptake via foliage may be much faster as compared to soil nutrition. Foliar nutrient applications can very quickly correct physiological disorders caused by nutrient deficiencies, as well as help to overcome various stress conditions. | ||
