Abstract: The study on “Performance of tree mulberry applied with secondary nutrients and its influence on silkworm (Bombyx mori L.)” was carried out in the established V-1 tree mulberry garden at College of Sericulture, Chintamani during 2022-23. The treatments were formulated based on the recommendation for sulphur application in mulberry and proposed the recommendation for calcium, magnesium and sulphur in the ratio of 3:1:0.9, respectively. The biochemical parameters viz., total carbohydrates (18.28%), total proteins (33.12%), total chlorophyll (2.48 mg/g), ash content (11.75%), leaf moisture content (76.76%) and moisture retention capacity (95.17%) were found higher in the mulberry trees treated with RDF+ Soil application of Ca:Mg:S :: 82.5:27.5:25 followed by treatment RDF+ Soil application of Ca:Mg:S: 66:22:20.
