Abstract
The research was carried out to study the effect of a plant vitamin on growth of the tomato
plant and the resultant residue levels in the tomato fruit. The field experiment was
designed according to the Randomized Complete Block Design (RCBD). Several growth
parameters were monitored to determine the growth rate of tomato plants. The macro,
micro and trace element contents were determined after the fruits were harvested. The
statistical analysis was carried out to analyze the results.
Analysis of the growth parameters indicates that the plant vitamin does not help to
increase the growth rate in tomato plant and in the tomato fruit. Results also reveal an
increase in N, P, Ca and Zn levels in the tomato fruits
