Journal Title: International Journal of Agricultural Science and Research (IJASR) - Year 2017, Vol 7, Issue 2
Abstract
A field experiment was conducted at University guava orchard, Rajmata Vijayaraje Scindia Krishi Vishwavidyalaya, Gwalior (M.P) during the year 2014-15. The experiment was laid out in Randomized Block Design with 16 treatments replicated three times in a well established of 10 years old orchard. The treatment comprised of three different concentrations of zinc sulphate (0.20 %, 0.30 % and 0.40 %) and gibberellic acid (30 ppm, 60 ppm and 90 ppm) along with control as water spray. The higher concentration of zinc sulphate 0.40% and gibberellic acid 90 ppm (T15) spray enhanced the number of fruits per plant (814.36), weight of fruit (210.40 g), yield of fruit per plant (74.76 kg) and Higest benefit cost (B: C) ratio (1:3.85) were also calculated.
