AB [EN] Spain is the main chickpea (Cicer arietinum) producing country in Europe, despite there are few studies onmicronutrient application to chickpea. The response of chickpea to the applications of Zn, B and Mo was studied inpot experiments with natural conditions and acidic soils in northwest Spain from 2006 to 2008 following a factorialstatistical pattern (5 × 2 × 2) with three replicates. Five concentrations of Zn (0, 1, 2, 4 and 8 mg Zn pot–1), twoconcentrations of B (0 and 2 mg B pot–1), and two concentrations of Mo (0 and 2 mg Mo pot–1) were added to the pots.Chickpea responded to the Zn, B and Mo applications. There were differences between soils. The mature plants fertilizedwith Zn, with B and with Mo had a greater total dry matter production. Harvest Index (HI) improved with the Znapplication and with the Mo application. The highest HI was obtained with the Zn4× B2 × Mo2 treatment (60.30%) whilethe smallest HI was obtained with the Zn0 × B0 × Mo0 treatment (47.65%). The Zn, B and Mo applications improvedseed yield, mainly due to the number of pods per plant. This was the yield component that had the most influence on,and the most correlation with seed yield. The highest seed yield was obtained from the Zn4 × B2 × Mo2 treatment (4.00g plant–1) while the lowest was obtained from the Zn0 × B0 × Mo0 treatment (2.31 g plant–1). There was a low interactionbetween the three micronutrients. The Zn application was more efficient when it was applied with both B and Mo.Additional key words: dry matter, Kabuli type chickpea, micronutrients, yield components
