Abstract: The Laboratory experiment was carried out in the Department of Seed Science and Technology, College of Agriculture, University of Agricultural Sciences, Raichur during Rabi season of 2014-15 with an objective to study the effect of seed polymer coating with micronutrients on seed quality of chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.). The experiment was laid out in a completely randomized design with seventeen treatments including control with four replications. The results revealed that, chickpea seeds treated with either combined application of 6 ml polymer per kg seed along with micronutrients namely, ZnSO4 + Boron + Ammonium molybdate + FeSO4 each at 2 g per kg of seed or individual application of either ammonium molybdate (2 g/kg of seed) or ZnSO4 (2 g/kg of seed) or FeSO4 (2 g/kg of seed) or Boron (2 g/kg of seed) can used in order to enhance the seed quality in chickpea.
