Further, results revealed that the maximum fruit diameter (4.58 cm), average fruit weight (44.06 g), fruit volume (43.83 cc), number of fruit per tree (946), fruit yield (41.68 kg per tree) and total fruit yield (115.46 quintal per hectare) were recorded with treatment ZnSO4 0.5% + FeSO4 0.5% + Borax 0.2% (T8) as compared to other treatments.
