Abstract: A field experiment was conducted during 2015-17 at research farm of RARI, Durgapura – Jaipur in split plot design on Pomegranate cv ‘Early Bhagwa’. The experiment consisted 12 treatment combinations with three doses of fertigation (100, 75 and 50% of RDF) and four micronutrient sprays (M₁ to M₄). The pooled data showed that treatment F₃ showed maximum gain in plant height, gain in stem girth, gain in plant spread (E-W) and gain in plant spread (N-S) (0.76 m, 0.72 cm, 0.25 m and 0.35 m, respectively). Whereas the minimum values (0.52 m, 0.51 cm, 0.18 m and 0.26 m, respectively) were found with the application of treatment F₁. The micronutrient treatment M₄ had the maximum gain in plant height, gain in stem girth, gain in plant spread (E-W) and gain in plant spread (N-S) (0.67 m, 0.65 cm, 0.23 m and 0.34 m, respectively), while treatment M1 showed the minimum value of gain in plant height and gain in plant spread (E-W) (0.62 m and 0.21 m, respectively) while treatment M₃ and M₂ showed minimum gain in stem girth and gain in plant spread (E-W) of 0.58 cm and 0.28 m, respectively.
