Abstract

The yield and yield attributing characters improved due to the foliar spray of 0.8% ZnSO4. Foliar application of 0.6% FeSO4 also showed better performance in terms of yield and yield attributing characters. Combined application of ZnSO4 and FeSO4 was found to be the best treatment for maximum yield with quality of guava fruits.
