Two field experiments were conducted during  Kharif 2 018 and 2019 on clay loam soils at Zonal Agricultural and Horticultural Research Station, Babbur farm, Hiriyur, Karnataka to evaluate the performance of pearl millet cultivars by different zinc  (Zn)  and iron  (Fe ) fertifortification methods. Micronutrient (Zn and Fe) management strategies were employed in main plots that include application of recommended NPK, along with recommended NPK supply of  Fe and Zn  through soil, foliar application and FYM enrichment along with  plant growth promoting rhizobacteria (PGPR).  Three pearl millet cultivars [Variety - ICTP 8203 Fe (Dhanshakti), Hybrid - ICMH 1202 and  local cultivar (variety - WCC 75)]  were considered in sub plots laid in split plot design with three replications. Three methods of micronutrient application tested improved the grain  Fe and Zn concentrations  of both biofortified cultivars Dhanshakti and Hybrid along with grain yield. Enrichment of FYM with  Fe and Zn  resulted in higher  concentration  and uptake of  Fe and Zn  than other  modes of micronutrient application . The hybrid ICMH 1202  had  obtained significantly higher grain yield (2203 kg ha −1 ), grain micronutrient  concentration  of pearl millet (50.52 and 83.88  mg kg −1  Zn and Fe , respectively) with the application of enriched FYM + PGPR along with  recommended  NPK and found the best.
