Abstract: A field experiment was conducted at the research of farm Oilseed Research Station, Latur under VNMKV, Parbhani during the period of Rabi, 2018 and 2019 to evaluate the “Effect of macro nutrients and priming of micronutrient on growth parameter, yield and grain quality of linseed.” Replicated thrice the experiment was laid out in Randomized Block Design (RBD) with 12 treatments viz,T₁: absolute control,T₂: Only RDF,T₃:RDF + Zn@ 3g kg^-1 seed,T₄ :RDF + B @ 3g kg^-1 seed,T₅: RDF+ Fe@ 3g kg^-1 seed.,T₆: RDF + S @ 3g kg^-1 seed,T₇: RDF + Zn+ B each @ 3g/kg^-1 seed,T₈: RDF + Zn+ B +Mo each @ 3g kg^-1 seed,T₉:RDF + Zn+ B + Mo + Fe each @ 3g kg^-1 seed,T₁₀: RDF + Zn+ B + Mo + Fe+ S each @ 3g kg^-1 seed,T₁₁:RDF + Rhizobium + PSB each @ 10 ml kg^-1 seed,T₁₂: Without RDF + Zn+ B + Mo + Fe + S each @ 3g kg^-1 seed. The results showed that methods of micronutrient application through seed priming along with RDF treatment T₁₀ proved its superiority over rest of treatments on growth and yield parameter characters. The results revealed that treatment T₁₀ receiving Zn+ B + Mo + Fe+ S each@ 3g kg^-1seed application along with RDF recorded maximum germination percentage, plant height, leaf area, root density, number of pods, and final plant stand percentages as well as noticed highest grain yield, dry matter yield and total biological yield of linseed. Further, results indicated that test weight, protein and oil percentage were significantly improved with the application of treatment T_10. The lowest values related to all parameters were obtained in control plot treatment.
