A field experiment was conducted to study the effect of boron and zinc application on cotton (Gossypium hirsutum L.) cultivar CIM-482 at Central Cotton Research Institute, Multan. Application of zinc and boron improved the ratio of vegetative growth and increased Zn and B concentration in leaf tissues at flowering stage. Furthermore, the addition of 10 kg Zn and 2 kg B per hectare caused significant increases in seed cotton yield, number of bolls per plant and boll weight. Fibre quality parameters did not differ significantly with the application of Zn and B.
