The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of foliar sprays with zinc sulphate at 2, 4 and 6 g/L and boric acid 1.5, 3 and 4.5 g/L on yield, fruit quality and oil properties of Manzanillo olive trees.
Results showed that zinc sulphate and/or boric acid foliar sprays alone or in combination enhanced yield, fruit quality and oil properties of " Manzanillo " olive trees, In addition, zinc sulphate concentration at 6 g/L with boric acid concentrations at 4.5 g/L was the most effective treatment in improving yield, fruit weight, fruit volume, fruit length, fruit width, pulp thickness, fruit moisture content, oil extracted, lower oil acidity and proved to be saponification number.
