Abstract

The field experiment was conducted at Agricultural Experimental Station, Navsari Agricultural University, Paria, District-Valsad, Gujarat, during 2013–14. The experiment included seven treatments consisting of tricontanol @ 500, 750 and 1000 mg/litre, humic acid 0.5, 1.0, and 1.5% and water spray as the control. The experiment was laid out in a randomized block design with four replications. Trees were sprayed three times, viz. at flowering, pea size and marble stage of fruits. Among different treatments, tricontanol @ 750 mg/litre enhanced fruit setting at pea and marble stages per panicle; fruit retention at harvesting stage, minimize fruit drop at harvesting stage and number of fruits/tree, while, humic acid @ 1.5%was found effective for fruit yield, physical and quality parameters. Similarly, foliar application of humic acid @ 1.5% gave higher benefit: cost ratio.
