Abstract

Three micronutrients (Zn, Fe, B) were tried in three concentrations i.e. 0.1, 0.25 and 0.50 per cent foliar spray. There were ten treatments replicated three times. The first spray was applied at 30 DAT and second spray after 60 DAT. The spacing was kept 60 X 60 an. The observation on fruit yield and quality of chilli fruits per plant were recorded and analysed statistically. The treatment T₃(ZnSO₄ 0.50%) exhibits maximum yield and treatment T₅ (FeSO₄ 0.25%) produced maximum number of seeds/fruit.
