Abstract

The plant crop pineapple responded favourably to the foliar application of micronutrients and their mixture.

The fruit weights with and without crown were considerably increased by the application of micronutrients.
The highest fruit weight with crown (2.41 kg) and the highest yield (84,57 t/ha) were recorded with a chelated commercial formulation ‘Polymax super’ compared with 1.38 kg and 29.26 t/ha respectively in the control.
The highest harvest index of 33% was recorded in treatments with a micronutrient mixture and ‘Polymax super’ while the lowest harvest index of 26% was recorded in the control.
