Abstract:
Field experiments were conducted during 2016-2017 at K.N.K. College of Hortiuclture, Mandsaur, Madhya Pradesh to find out the to study the effect of urea, zinc sulphate and borax on flowering, fruiting and yield of acid lime. The result revealed that foliar spray of urea 1.5% + borax 0.6% + ZnSO4 0.5% was found to be the best for maximum increase in plant-height (0.32 m), plant spread in north-south (0.37 m), plant spread in east-west (0.33 m), number of flower per plant (1977.33), fruit set (63.28%), number of fruit per plant (985.00) and reduced fruit drop (36.14%) which ultimately increased the yield of fruit per plant (45.40 kg) compared to other treatments.
