The present investigation entitled “Effect of Nitrogen, Potash and Boron on plant growth, flowering, fruit drop and fruit setting of Pomegranate (Punica granatum) cv. Bhagwa” was carried out at the field of Department of Horticulture, Naini Agricultural Institute, Sam Higginbottom University of Agriculture, Technology and Sciences, Prayagraj during the year 2019-20. The present experiment was conducted in Randomized Block Design having 10 treatments which were replicated 3 times. The biometrical observations were recorded on three randomly selected plants of each treatment to assess the effect of treatments on growth and flowering of Pomegranate. The observation revealed that with application of N 1% + K 1% + B 0.50 gave maximum plant height (3.01 m), plant spread (239 cm2), number of leaves (653.53), number of branches (15.17), length of Internodes (22.03 cm), stem diameter (4.04 cm), leaf area (7.07 cm2), plant canopy (1.99 cm²), number of flowers/plant (73.12), better fruit Set (68.71%) and chlorophyll content (21.40) among the treatments. It may be concluded that boron and Potash with nitrogen may be used for obtaining flower and fruit setting with higher chlorophyll content.
