A field experiment was conducted at Dry Land Agricultural Research Station, JAU, Jamkhambhaliya, Saurashtra for studying the effect of seaweed liquid fertilizer on yield and uptake of micronutrients by kharif Groundnut (cv. G.G.2) under rainfed condition. The groundnut (GG.2) grown on soils deficient in available Zn and Fe significantly responded higher pod yield and uptake of micronutrients (Fe, Mn, Zn, Cu) and net realization (ICBR 1:3.28) to the spray of seaweed liquid fertilizer (SLF) @ 3.5 % at 15, 30 and 45 days after sowing.
