The Research was conducted with the main objective to study the influence of foliar application of micronutrients on Tomato (Lycopersicon esculentum Mill.) cv. ’Sahil’ at Agricultural Research Institute, Horticulture, Dera Ismail Khan, Pakistan during 2016-2017. The experiment consists of eight treatments involving T1 (RD NPK through chemical fertilizers N: P2O5 : K2 O5 kg ha-1 (75 : 37.5 : 62.5)), T2 (T1+ Boric acid 0.571 g l-1), T3 (T1+ Zinc sulphate 0.246 g l-1), T4 (T1 + Copper sulphate 0.420 g l-1), T5 (T1+Ferrous sulphate 0.515 g l-1), T6 (T1 + Manganese sulphate 0.320 g l-1) and T7 (T1 + mixture of all micronutrients) and T8 (T1 + Multiplex 4 ml l-1) by mixing with simple water were imposed. The foliar application was made by using equipment knapsack sprayer (ASPEE) in the evening hours. The thrice times foliar spray were made at 10 days intervals starting from 40 days after transplanting seedling. The data clearly showed that the yield obtained with treatment T7 had significantly plant height (132.77 cm), number of branches plant-1 (5.96), fresh weight of plants (25.70 t ha-1), dry matter yield of plants (7669.04 kg ha-1), maximum days to last picking (166.01), number of fruits plant-1 (34.43), fruit length (5.47 cm), fruit diameter (4.57 cm), fruit volume (65.94 cm3), single fruit weight (49.00 g), fruit weight plant-1 (1.69 kg), number of locules fruit-1 (3.01), pericarp thickness (6.27 mm), fruit yield plot-1 (70.86 kg), fruit yield ha-1 (46.87 t.) and marketable fruit yield ha -1 (45.68 t). This treatment had maximum BCR 2.71: 1 out all other treatments than control.
