“…The present results concerning the effect of using combination with organic and mineral nutrients on increasing leaf chlorophyll and NPK are similar to those obtained by Murillo et al, (2005), Saleh et al, (2006, Athani et al, (2007b) Eman et al, (2008. However, Naik andSriHariBabu, (2007), andEL-Shenawi et al, (2008) found that leaf N remained almost the same before and after the trial.…”

This investigation was carried out during 2007 and 2008 growing seasons on six years old Arabi-pomegranate trees, grown in sandy clay loamy soil in a private farm located at Alexandria-Matrouh road, to study the effect of different fertilizers i.e., minerals (Ammonium Sulphate, Potassium Sulphate and Calcium Super Phosphate) at rate of 100% or 50% of the recommended dose or organic (humic acid or compost solely) or their combinations on growth, fruit set, yield, fruit quality and leaf minerals content during both seasons of study. The obtained results showed that, vegetative growth, fruit set, yield as weight or number of fruits /tree as well as fruit quality (average fruit weight, diameter, length, TSS and anthocyanine) and leaf N content were, generally, improved under all treatments as compared with control in both seasons. While, slight effect on leaf P and K content were noticed. The studied treatments decreased juice acidity and did not significantly affect V.C. and tannins content in both seasons. The striking treatments 50% of the recommended rate of NPK + organic matter (compost or humic acid) were most effective in improving all parameters when compared with other treatments. It is worthy to note that, using 50% of the recommended rate of NPK + organic matter (compost at 25Kg/ tree or humic acid at 12.5 or 25g /tree) had a similar effect to the treatment 100% of the recommended rate of NPK solely. Hence, it could be concluded that fertilizing pomegranate trees with 50% of the recommended rate of NPK + humic acid at higher rate 25g/ tree is the promising treatment under the same condition of our study. Moreover, it reduced half the amount of the recommended mineral fertilizers as well as soil pollution.

“…Yadav (2006) reported that application of Vermicompost with 100% NPK recorded maximum TSS, Total sugar and reduction in acidity of papaya fruit. Results of the present investigation are also in conformity with the findings of Athani et al, (2009). They noticed highest TSS, total sugar and ascorbic acid in guava cv.…”

The present studies were carried out in Experimental Block, Department of Fruit Science, Dr. YS Parmar University of Horticulture and Forestry, Nauni, Solan (HP) during the year 2015-16. Nine years old trees of uniform size and vigour planted at 4.0 x 2.0 m spacing were selected for the studies. The experiment was laid out in a randomized block design with 11 treatments. The maximum increased in fruit set (87.70%) and yield (20.16 kg/tree) were observed significantly higher under 75% RDF + vermicompost 15 kg/tree. Maximum fruit length (64.06 mm), breadth (61.89 mm), fruit weight (129.51 g), total soluble solids (13.33 ºB) and total sugars (7.51%) were recorded under 75% RDF + vermicompost 15 kg/tree, however, highest fruit firmness (6.56 kg/cm2) and lowest titratable acidity (0.50%) were found with 4 applications of jeevamrut.
