The current study, Impact of micronutrients on yield attributes and yield as foliar application in rice, was conducted at the Experimental Farm Department of Agronomy, Annamalai University, Tamil Nadu, India, during the Samba Season (September, 2022 - February, 2023). The eight treatments comprised of different nutrient management practices viz., 100 % RDF (T1), 100 % RDF + foliar application of ZnSO4 @ 0.5 % (T2), 100 % RDF + foliar application of Borax @ 0.25 % (T3), 100 % RDF + foliar application of Silicon @ 1 % (T4), 100 % RDF + foliar application of ZnSO4 @ 0.5 % + Borax @ 0.25 % (T5), 100% RDF + foliar application of ZnSO4 @ 0.5 % + Silicon @ 1% (T6), 100 % RDF + foliar application of Borax @ 0.25 % + Silicon @ 1 % (T7) and 100 % RDF + foliar application of ZnSO4 @ 0.5 % + Borax @ 0.25 % + Silicon @ 1 % (T8). The results showed that transplanted rice benefited from the foliar application of micronutrients such as silicon, zinc, and borax. Characteristics of yield include number of panicles m-2, length of panicle (cm), and number of filled panicles -1.
