Abstract
Tomato (Lycopersicon esculentum L.) of family Solanaceae assumes great significance due to its nutritional excellance. It is one of the most popular and widely grown vegetable and cultivated throughout the world for its fresh and as well as for processed products. Productivity of tomato in India (17.4 t/ha) is quite meager than the world productivity (27.73 t/ha) (NHB database, 1). There is an ample scope to enhance the productivity by adopting various techniques. Application of micronutrient has got the tremendous effect besides the use of major nutrient fertilizers to increase crop yield. Micronutrients like boron, copper, molybdenum and zinc if applied through foliar means can improve the vegetative growth, fruit set and yield of tomato (Arora et al., 2) In view of the above facts the present study was undertaken to assess the impact of micronutrients on growth and yield of tomato.
