Abstract:
A field experiment was carried out at Fruit Research Station, Sangareddy, Telangana State during the year 2015- 2017 to study the effect of dosage (T1 –NK @ 100% RDF, T2 - NK @ 80% RDF, T3 - NK @ 60% RDF, T4 - NK @ 50% RDF) and frequency of fertigation (F1 - One time at marble stage, F2 - Daily fertigation) on production and productivity of mango (Mangifera indica L.) cv. Banganpalli. The experiment results revealed that application of daily fertigation with 100% RD of NK + micronutrient mixture (D1F2) has recorded the maximum fruit TSS (17.12 °Brix), specific gravity (1.11), reducing sugars (6.96%), sugar acid ratio (85.08) and improved flavour with minimum titratable acidity (0.20 %) and maximum shelf life (15.13 days) of fruits, due to increase in the soil and leaf macro (N (kg/ha), K (kg/ha)) nutrient levels.
