An experiment was conducted during 2016-17 and 2017-18 to assess the performance of sweet orange cv. Blood Red to foliar application of micronutrients. The study comprised of thirteen treatments viz., ZnSO4 0.25%, ZnSO4 0.50%, ZnSO4 1.00%, FeSO4 1.5%, FeSO4 2.0%, FeSO4 2.5%, MnSO4 0.25%, MnSO4 0.50%, MnSO4 1.00%, H3BO3 0.1%, H3BO3 0.2%, H3BO3 0.3% and Control (No micronutrients). The plants were sprayed with micronutrients on first week of april and first week of july. The results showed that foliar application of micronutrient alone significantly increased the individual micronutrient content as compared to other and control. Therefore, application of micronutrients as foliar spray reduces incidence of deficiency calamities, in turn flourishes the growth and yield attributes subsequently.
