ABSTRACT
The present experiment on the effect of foliar application of micronutrients and growth regulator on yield and quality of aonla (Emblica officinalis Gaertn.) cv. Gujarat Aonla-1 was carried out at Polytechnic in Horticulture, Junagadh Agricultural University, Junagadh during 2017-18 and 2018-19. The experiment was laid out in Factorial Completely Randomized Block Design (FCRD) consisting two factors with three replications. Five treatments of micronutrients and three treatments of growth regulator were considered as treatment combinations. The results indicated that application of borax @ 0.5 %, NAA @ 20 ppm and borax @ 0.5 % + NAA 20 ppm; at three interval; first spray on 15th May, second spray on 15th June and third spray on 15th July of micronutrients and growth regulator gave higher yield and enhanced quality parameters in aonla.
