Response of guava to foliar application of urea, potassium sulphate and borax on growth and fruit yield

A field experiment was conducted at College Farm, Gwalior in M. P. during 2014 and 2015 to study the ^“response of guava to foliar application of urea, potassium sulphate and borax on growth and fruit yield. Results revealed that application of urea @ 2% (U₂) produced higher growth, yield attributes and yield of fruit (69.67 kg/plant) over rest of the urea levels. Potassium sulphate @ 1% (K₂) produced higher growth, yield attributing and fruit yield (62.42 kg/plant) as compared to potassium sulphate @ 0.5% and control (Potassium sulphate @ 0%). Amongst the borax levels, application of borax @ 0.75% resulted in significantly higher growth, yield attributes and yield of fruit (64.86 kg/plant) over all the remaining borax levels.
