Abstract

The quality and quantity of crop directly depend on the balanced nutrition of both macronutrients and micronutrients. The present research project was exhibiting same, as the effect of micro-nutrients (Zn, B) in combination with macro-nutrient (N) for the improved quality of tomato grown under high tunnel. The experiment was arranged in Completely Randomized Design (CRD) with five treatments with four replications. Individual nutrients such as N (2 g/100ml), B (5 g/100ml) and Zn (6 g/100ml) were applied along with a combined mixture containing all three. In addition, a control treatment was also run as control. Results revealed that individual application of nutrient gave better results in comparison with control but the effect of mixture (Zn = g/100ml, B = g/100ml, N = g/100ml) provided extra ordinary results in enhancing the Total soluble solids, titeratable acidity and vitamin C content of tomato. Results confirmed that combination of N, Zn and B influence the quality tomato positively.
