Abstract
Thisstudy was carried out on olive trees cv. Amygdalifolia, to investigate the effect of spraying potassium nitrate (K NO3)and zinc sulfate (ZnSO4)on the fruit weight ,dimension and volume.The plants were sprayed with 0,0.5,1.0 and1.5% KNO3 and0,0.25,0.50 and0.75% ZnSO4 and their combinations in August about halfway through the fruit growth period. The highest fruit weight was observed using 0.5% ZnSO4 +0.5% KNO3.Fruit length and diameter were affected significantly using different ZnSO 4 concentrations especially in combination with KNO 3. The fruit, pulp and pulp/pit volume increased by increasing ZnSOconcentrations. The highest fruit, pulp and pulp/pit volume were also obtained from trees treated with 0.5% ZnSO4 +0.5% KNO 3. Our results emphasize t he importance of an appropriate fertilization management, particularly for table olives, in which fruit size, and pulp/pit ratio are important characteristics.
