USM ADMIN
The aim of the research was to determine the influence of foliar nutrition with “Fertileader Gold” on growth indices of sunflower plants under field conditions. Results showed that foliar application of mentioned biostimulant increased the growth rate with about 6% compared to control. The highest positive influence of the fertilizer was on the head diameter (about 28% at stage 70 days after planting), comparing with plant height. This study may help the integrated nutrient management for oil seed crops especially the sunflower, and biostimulators as “Fertileader Gold” can be beneficial to improve growth and development of treated sunflower. Keywords: sunflower, fertilizer, biostimulator, plant height, head diameter .
