Abstract: The experiment was carried out at Banana Research Station, Nanded to study the effect of micronutrients with chemicals on yield and quality of banana. The experiment was laid out in Randomized Block Design with three replications and thirteen treatments. The observations on yield and quality attributes were recorded during investigation. The yield and quality parameters such as weight of bunch (21.77 kg), average yield (94.12 Mt/ha), acidity (0.18%), reducing sugar (17.21%), non-reducing sugar (3.81%) and total sugars (21.02%) were found maximum in the treatment i.e T6 ZnSO4 (0.5%) + B2 (SO4)3 (0.1%) + KH2PO4 (0.5%) which were 75.28, 70.50, 43.75, 23.36, 88.61 and 31.62 per cent, respectively more as compared to control. Maximum pulp to peel ratio (3.25) was found in treatment i.e T6 ZnSO4 (0.5%) + B2 (SO4)3 (0.1%) + KH2PO4 (0.5%) which was comparatively more (30.00%) than the control. It is inferenced that Benifit:Cost ratio was found significant due to foliar application of ZnSO4(0.1%) +B2(SO4)3(0.1%) +KH2PO4(0.5%) for better yield and quality attributes in banana.
