An experiment was carried out during 2015-16 with speciality fertilizers of R.C.F. (Rashtriya Chemicals and Fertilizers) Limited on the fruit yield and quality of pomegranate in an orchard with a soil pH of 8.7 and EC of 0.40 (ds m -1 ) in randomised block design (RBD). During the experiment the effects of foliar sprays of NPK 19:19:19 (Sujala), Micronutrient Fertilizer (Microla) and Phosphate Solubilising Bacteria (Biola) were studied. Sujala alone and in combination with Microla were applied with three and five sprays each respectively. Biola was applied only once before the application of foliar fertilizers through drenching method. The concentration of 0.5 % and 0.2 % of Sujala and Microla were used in the experiment respectively. The application of Recommended Dose of Fertilizer (RDF) along with each 5 sprays of Sujala and Microla recorded maximum yield (26.87 kg / plant), number of fruits (101.33) and average weight of fruit (272.00 g) followed by RDF along with Sujala, Microla (3 spray) and Biola.

“…The weight of the seeds was also increased by the effect of foliar spraying with potassium, reaching 136.01g, 199.62g, and 224.20g in each of the control, the treatment of concentration A, and the treatment of concentration B, respectively (Table 1). This agrees with Sheikh and Manjula (2009) who confirmed that foliar fertilization with potassium gave the highest average fruit weight.…”

“…Lack of mineral nutrition such as potassium is directly related to fruit cracking in pomegranates (Gharesheikhbayat, 2006;Saei et al, 2014). Nutrients such as potassium are involved in some physiological processes during the period of fruit growth, and their deficiency leads to fruit cracking (Sheikh and Manjula, 2009). Sheikh and Manjula (2009) found that the addition of N, P, K fertilizers in 3 batches (200; 200; 400g per plant) gave the highest productivity of the pomegranate tree, of the average weight of the fruit, of the percentage of juice, as well as an increase in the percentage of T.S.S.…”

The research was carried out in the 2018 agricultural season with the aim of studying the effect of foliar spraying with potassium on reducing the fruit cracking of pomegranate. The experiment was conducted according to the completely randomized design (CRD). We had three treatments for potassium concentrations (0, 1000, 2000 ppm) and four treatments for the number of spraying times (0, 1, 2, and 3 times). The results showed that all potassium spraying treatments exceeded the control in most of the studied characteristics. The increase in the spraying concentration achieved a significant reduction in the percentage of fruit cracking, which amounted to 22.98% and 19.75% in the treatments of concentrations A and B, respectively. The increase in the number of foliar spraying with potassium also reduced the percentage of fruit cracking, as it reached 73.96%, 28.32%, 21.03%, and 17.57% in treatments of 0, 1, 2, and 3 spraying times, respectively. Similarly, the productivity was greatly increased by the effect of potassium foliar spraying.

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 rate of 0, 0.3 and 0.6 percent under a factorial design on the base of completely randomized blocks. Mn sprays had positive significant effects on the fruit yield, the aril/peel ratio, TSS, weight of 100 arils, juice content of arils, anthocyanin index, fruit diameter and leaf area. Zn effects were also significant for TSS, TSS/TA ratio, juice content of arils and leaf area. Foliar spray of Mn significantly increased Mn and N but decreased Zn and Cu concentrations in leaves. Foliar sprays of Zn significantly increased Zn but decreased Mn and P concentrations in the leaves. According to the results, the suitable combination of these two micronutrients for studied characters of pomegranate under prevailing conditions was foliar spray of 0.6% MnSO 4 and 0.3% ZnSO 4 .
