Soybean seeds treated with micronutrients

The expenment was conducted in the Julio de Castilhos Experimental Station, RS, in 1990/91 and 1991/92 seasons. The effect of soybean seeds treated with zinc, boron, molybdenum and cobait, in two lime doses in Passo Fundo soil was evaluated. A completely randomized design with split plot with three replications was used. The lime doses formed the mam plots (zero and 17.71/ha) and zinc, boron, molybdenum and cobait formulation (0.875; 0.062; 0.150 and 0.012gkg of seeds) were the sub-plots. The treatments were contlol, molybdenum and zinc isolated and combinated with boron and cobait, with powder (Soybean Biocrop) and solution (MIQL 44-90A) formulation. The results indicate that withouth lime application, seeds treated with molybdenum had an increment in grain yield. However witht liming no difference in grain yield was observed.
