Özet: Nowadays, beneficial microorganisms are used effectively in agricultural applications due to its environmentally-friendly effects. These microorganisms, used in different areas, provide a positive effect on quality properties and yield by increasing the amount of plant nutrients. In this context, it was aimed to determine the effects of foliar microbial fertilizer applications (EM.A and EM.5) on yield and some fruit characteristics for 'Chandler' walnut variety in 3 different periods. The study was carried out in Demirci/Manisa district between 2018 and 2019, EM.A application ranked the first in terms of fruit weight (12.62 g), width (33.60 mm) and diameter (41.13 mm). In both beneficial microbial fertilizer applications, a * value increased and C * value decreased. In general, the level of linoleic acid (EM.5 with 62.74%) was high in fruit, was followed by linoleinic (control with 16.21%) and oleic acid (EM.A with 13.22%), respectively. The highest yield was determined in EM.5 application and the lowest was found in untreated trees (0.78 kg/tree).
