Abstract: An investigation on “Response of different iron sources on yield attributes and yield of pearlmillet cultivars" was carried out during kharif season 2019 at College of Agriculture, Rajendranagar. The experiment comprised of two cultivars of bajra as main plot treatments and five iron sources as subplot treatments tested under split plot design with 10 treatments and each treatment replicated three times. Pearlmillet hybrids PBH-1625 and HHB-67 were grown by adopting recommended package of practices. Higher yield attributes and yield were observed in PBH-1625 cultivar. Plant nutrients applied through inorganic fertilizer and in combinations with organic manures or iron sources showed significant effect on yield attributes and yield in different treatments. Application of iron through enriched FYM resulted in increased yield attributes and yield of pearl millet with T3 (FeSO4 fortified manure @ 500 kg ha-1) treatment.
