Screening a suitable genotype is important for nutrient recovery and its acquisition potential. Twenty genotypes of tomato were studied under different doses B-application. The indices B use efficiencies, viz. apparent (ABR), fruit production efficiency (FPE), physiological (PE), agro-physiological (APE) utilization ratio (UER) worked out genotypes. field experiment was laid in split-plot design the two consecutive years, assigning three levels (control i.e. without application, @ 2.0 kg ha−1 through borax 0.25% boric acid foliar spray twice) main plot location-specific twenty subplots, replicated thrice. Soil applied produced greater yield than twice B. However, improved by 2–12% over control soil Irrespective genotypes, content shoot plant upon application (ABR) agronomic (AE) suggested that more effective comparison to application. efficiencies highest cultivars NS–812 followed NS–512 B–9–2 B-deficient calcareous soils with twice. These could be promising lines breeding program enrichment cultivation soils.

In the pursuit of sustainable agriculture and clean environment, nano-fertilizers are emerging as a viable alternative to traditional chemical fertilizers. This is attributed enhanced properties nano-fertilizer such stable dispersion in media, bioavailability plants. Boron nanoparticle based formulation can be used fertilizer solve challenges associated with micronutrient boron, narrowly balanced between its deficiency toxicity this study, boron oxide nanoparticles (nano boron) were biologically synthesized. A comparative analysis was conducted nano commercially available borax (a standard fertilizer) after foliar application on potato The study further encompasses time series, correlation analyses assess impact agronomic productivity parameters. minimized dosage photosystem II efficiency, plant biomass, tuber yield, outperforming conventional borax. Nano potent, minimal-input, maximum-output solution for productivity. contributes valuable insights into field food production, advocating adoption green nanotechnology setting new paradigm resource-efficient crop cultivation. Subject terms: agriculture, nano-fertilizers, bioavailability, particles, efficiency
