Yield and Quality of Groundnut Seed as Influenced by Light and Boron

The yield of groundnut is decreasing day by day in the most tropical and subtropical country like Bangladesh. In spite of providing recommended doses of an additional macronutrient the yield is not increasing. Therefore we decided to work for micronutrient with additional supplementation of artificial light. From the present study we found that reproductive development yield and nutritional elements were increased for boron (micronutrient) fertilization. Although yield was not increased in the light-treated area the nutritional elements increased dramatically.
