Abstract

The results of a field experiment conducted during the years 2007-08 and 2008-09 at R.B.S. College research farm, Bichpuri, Agra reveal that foliar application of micronutrients solution proved useful in case of mean values of transverse length, polar length, pericarp thickness, locule number, fruit weight and density and yield of tomato variety, Rupali. Three foliar applications of mixture of B, Zn, Cu, Fe and Mn each @ 100 ppm and Mo@ 50 ppm at 10 days interval starting from 40 DAT of tomato enhanced significantly and resulted the maximum mean fruit yield to the extent of 28.67% over control.
