Abstract

Although three foliar sprayings of 1% borax significantly minimized the incidence of fruit drop and fruit cracking, and increased fruit yields than control, the maximum profit of Rs. 2201 per ha more than control was earned by spraying water alone at fortnightly intervals. The fruits from water spraying treatment were heavier in weight resulting in increasing fruit yields as well as total sugar yields. Thus, water spraying appeared to be more beneficial for obtaining higher yields of good quality litchi fruits in cv. Rose Scented.
