The field experiment was conducted at Agronomy Department Farm, Agricultural Research Station, Gulbarga, Karnataka during late kharif season of 2013 and 2014 to study the response of late sown pigeonpea (Cajanus cajan L. Millsp.) to trace elements. The experiment was laid out in a Randomized Complete Block Design with three replications. Amongst all the treatments, RDF+ foliar application of commercially available multiplex @ 2.5 ml/litre of water caused maximum increase in growth and yield attributes viz., plant height (139 cm), number of primary (10.8/plant) and secondary branches (18.8/plant), total dry matter per plant (161.6 g/plant), number of pods per plant (121.4), pod weight (49.60 g/plant), seed weight (36.96 g/plant), 100 seed weight (9.77 g), seed yield (937 kg/ha), net returns (` 56,920/ha) and B: C ratio (3.50) when compared to RDF only. The next best treatments which recorded significantly superior growth and yield attributing characters were RDF + 19:19:19 soluble powder @ 4 g/lt. of water, RDF + soil application of ZnSO4 @ 15 kg/ha and RDF + foliar application of ZnSO4 @ 0.50%, whereas lower values were recorded in RDF only.
