Old Fig Tree

This gnarly fig tree is over 35 years old, has not been cared for in recent years, is not producing, and has scant leaves. Can it be revived with proper fertilizers and water? What fertilizers do you recommend (i. e. ratios of the three elements)? It is located a mile from the ocean, in a sunny location. I think it is a Mission fig.
