Studies were carried out to see the effect of micronutrients sprays on leaves composition, fruit yield and quality of sweet orange cv. Blood Red. Spraying with micronutrients results in higher concentration of the respective nutrient in the leaves. Application of Zn along with other micronutrients was less effective in increasing Zn concentration of the leaves as compared to faliar application of Zn alone. The foliar application of micronutrients did not effect the level of N, P and K in the leaves. None of the treatments was able to affect fruit yield and quality significantly. The results have been discussed with the help of soil analysis values of the orchard.
