- Intervention effect The number of fruits per tree increased from 426 to 554 with balanced NPK plus multi-micronutrient.
- Intervention effect Fruit weight per tree was higher with multi-micronutrients applied through soil than in control.
- Intervention effect Productivity was enhanced to 39.83 t/ha with multi-micronutrients along with recommended NPK.
- Intervention effect Multi-micronutrient and NPK application increased ascorbic acid content and reducing and non-reducing sugar of sweet orange fruit.
- Intervention effect Juice acidity was highest in untreated control compared with balanced nutrient application.
