Article Synopsis
- Limited research exists on tillage and nutrient management for sesame crops grown after rice, despite sesame's high demand for its health benefits as an edible oil.
- Field experiments conducted in Tamil Nadu aimed to assess how different tillage methods and fertilizer doses affect sesame productivity in rice fallow environments.
- Findings revealed that sesame yields were significantly lower under zero tillage, with 75% recommended fertilizer dosage achieving similar results to 100%, and oil content remained unaffected by the management practices.
A series of iron (Fe) and zinc (Zn) plant nanonutrients in citrate form were prepared by an eco-friendly solid-state grinding of the respective nitrates and citric acid. Ball-milling of the as-prepared Fe and Zn citrates resulted in nanosize particles. The as-prepared and ball-milled Fe and Zn citrates were characterized using Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), thermogravimetric analysis and differential thermal analysis (TGA/DTA), and powder X-ray diffraction (XRD).
