Abstract: "Influence of soil and foliar applications through Integrated Nutrient Management on yield and quality of Sweet Orange (Citrus Sinensis L.) cv. Mosambi" is the title of the current study. The experiment was carried out from 2021 to 2022 at the RVSKVV College of Agriculture's Research Farm, located in Gwalior (M.P.), in the Department of Horticulture. Three replications and a Randomized Block Design were used to set up the experiment. The maximum Juice % (62.83), T.S.S. (°Brix) (11.64), Acidity% (0.56), Reducing Sugar % (4.90), Non Reducing Sugar % (4.03), Total Sugars% (8.37), T.S.S.: Acidity ratio (17.54) and Ascorbic Acid mg/100 g fresh pulp (58.56) all quality parameters were most effectively achieved with treatment T5 RDF 90% + Vermicompost + (Azotobacter + PSB + KMB) + (Zn + Cu + Fe + Boron). Therefore, this specific treatment is most suited for use in the subtropical north tract of Gwalior, Madhya Pradesh, where sweet oranges are grown.
