Abstract

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.
