The severely affected gardens were remarkably low in soil fertility and had low pH value. The available contents of DTPA extractable Zinc and Organic Carbon were in deficient range. The leaf nutrient status of these severely affected gardens were low in nitrogen, phosphorus and zinc. Foliar application of nutrients brought about notable improvement in bronzed plants. Bronzing was considerably overcome by the application of 0.5 per cent diammonium phosphate and zinc sulphate at weekly intervals for two months.
