Sweet orange (Citrus sinensis L.) is one of the most important crops in the world; it is mainly used for extraction and consumption of its fresh juice. Citrus fruits hold an important place in the economy of the country and these fruits form the third largest fruit industry (Anonymous, 2016). The fruit, which may be globose to oval, is typically 6.5 to 9.5 cm wide, and ripens to orange or yellow. The fruit skin (rind or peel) contains numerous small oil glands. The flesh or pulp of the fruit is typically juicy and sweet, divided into 10 to 14 segments (although there are seedless varieties) and ranges in color from yellow to orange to red (Khehra and Bal, 2014). Citrus fruits are cultivated in India in four different zones i.e. central India (Madhya Pradesh, Maharashtra and Gujarat), southern India (Andhra Pradesh and Karnataka), northwestern India (Punjab, Rajasthan, Haryana and western UP) and north-eastern India (Meghalaya, Assam and Sikkim). These zones have different leading cultivar(s) that occupies a place of prominence in the respective area (Etebu and Nwauzoma, 2014). Citrus occupies an important place in the fruit industry, but yield levels of citrus orchards are still very low Srivastava and Singh (2009). Nutrient refers to all those compounds, which are required by the plant as a source of body An investigation was carried out at Experimental field of department of Horticulture, Collage of Agriculture, RVSKVV, Gwalior (M.P.) during 2017 to study the effect of micronutrients on growth, yield and quality parameters of sweet orange. Foliar application of 4g Copper sulfate) + 2g Ferrous sulfate), + 2g Borax + 4g (Zinc sulfate) + 4g (Magnesium sulfate) + 10g lime per liter water during the mid of March and 1 st week of July with 600 N + 500 P + 300 K g/tree on sweet orange gave maximum Canopy volume (3.07 m 3 ), Leaf area (39.19 cm 2 ), Fruit set (79.81%), Fruit weight (167 g), Fruit length (11.8 cm), Fruit diameter (21.8 cm), Number of fruits/tree (248), Yield per tree (41.03 kg) and good quality fruits Juice (56.08 %) Acidity (0.78%), Ascorbic acid (58.04 mg/100ml) with Total Soluble Solids (11.6 o Brix). Therefore, application of this dose of micronutrient combination will improve yield and fruit quality in sweet orange of these micronutrients as a result of which the orchardist will be economically benefited.
