The present investigation entitled “Effect of foliar spray of NPK, Borax, ZnSO 4 & MgSO4 on Vegetative growth of Strawberry (Fragaria × ananassa Duch.) cv. Winter Dawn” was carried out during the year 2022-23 and 2023-24 at Main Experimental Station, Department of Fruit Science, College of Horticulture & forestry, A.N.D.U.A&T. Narendra nagar Kumarganj Ayodhya, Uttar Pradesh, India. The collected data were analyzed using RBD design with 9 treatments T1 (NPK @ 0.5%), T2 (NPK @ 1.0%), T3 (NPK @ 1.5%), T4 (NPK @1.0% +Borax @0.25%), T5 (NPK @ 1.0% +ZnSO4 @ 0.25%), T6 (NPK @ 1.0% + MgSO4 @ 0.25%), T7 (NPK @ 0.5% + Borax @0.25%+ZnSO4 @ 0.25%), T8 (NPK @ 0.5% + Borax @ 0.25% + ZnSO4 @ 0.25%+ MgSO4 @ 0.25%) and T9 (control) with three replication. The results revealed that the treatment T8 (NPK @ 0.5% + Borax @ 0.25% + ZnSO4 @ 0.25%+ MgSO4 @ 0.25%) outperformed the rest with Plant height(18.61cm and 18.32cm), maximum Number of leaves(41.23 and 40.82), maximum Plant spread (37.60cm and 37.48cm), highest production of runners(4.82 and 4.71). The treatment T8 is therefore recommended for the application to strawberry plant to obtain high yields
