Effects of zinc and manganese as foliar spray on pomegranate yield, fruit quality and leaf minerals

Effects of foliar sprays of zinc and manganese sulfates on the fruit yield and quality as well as leaf nutrients concentration of pomegranate were studied during 2010 growing season in an orchard with a soil pH of 7.5 and EC of 5.2 (dS m-1). Zinc and manganese sulfates were applied two times at the...
