Botrytis cinerea is the phytopathogen responsible for a wide range of symptom in crops of great importance such as tomato. Its control is traditionally based in the application of chemical fungicides; however, their excessive use leads to development of resistant strains, environmental pollution and harmful effects on human health. To reduce the intensive use of pesticides, it is currently sought to evaluate the effects of nutrients and organic substances in increasing the plant’s defense against phytopathogens. Thus, the aim of the study was to evaluate the effects of two foliar fertilizers contain copper, zinc and citric acid in the control of gray mold Botrytis cinerea in “Huascarán” tomato. In the laboratory phase evaluated the effects of the foliar fertilizers on the inhibition of mycelial growth at 6DAI (days after inoculation) with poisoned PDA medium; and in the field phase, the foliar fertilizers were sprayed by eight weeks varying the frequency application in weekly and each two weeks. The results showed that in laboratory condition the foliar fertilizers exhibited a high efficiency in the control of B. cinerea, and in field the most of the foliar applications had a significant control of B. cinenea on foliage but no on flowers and fruits. These results are important to develop strategies leads to improve the disease control and decreasing the massive use of chemical fungicide
