Cashew (Anacardium occidentale L.) is an important tropical nut crop of social and economic importance
worldwide. However, the crop is threatened with the low yield. In the present study, an attempt was made to
test the effects of plant growth hormones as well as micronutrients on nut and apple quality of cashew var.
Bhaskara. Significant differences in kernel weight, shelling percentage, carbohydrates and starch content of
cashew kernel and juice content of cashew apple were observed with the foliar application of growth hormones
and micronutrients. The foliar application of ethrel @ 50 ppm increased shelling percentage (35.8%),
carbohydrate content (21.63%), sugar content (6.26%), protein content (32.4%), starch content (31.42%), juice
content (78.3%) and total soluble solids (120 Brix). Further, the foliar spray of zinc sulphate (0.5%) + borax
(0.1%) increased shelling (36.13%), protein content (32.15%), starch content (32.03%) among all the treatments
tested. Furthermore, higher cashew apple juice content (78%) and total soluble solids (120Brix) was also recorded
with the foliar spray of zinc sulphate (0.5%) + borax (0.1%).
