It is recommended that, 50 days soil moisture stress is sufficient for Nagpur mandarin trees grown on medium type of soil for obtaining maximum yield of Mrig bahar<\/span><\/div>\n<\/li>\n- \n
For regulation of hasta bahar flowering in Acid lime for obtaining mac9mum yield of hasta bahar fruits of acid lime, 30 days soil moisture stress (from 15th September to 15th October)with 50 ppm Ascorbic acid spray ( at the time of release of stress) or 30 days sol moisture stress with de blossoming in preceding season and 10 ppm GA spray ( at the time of release of stress) in medium type of soil is recommended<\/span><\/div>\n<\/li>\n- \n
Application of 1200 g N + 400 g p2o5 400 g K2o for fully grown up Nagpur mandarin tree per year is recommended for obtaining maximum fruit yield of superior quality. The fertilizer should be applied in two split up doses, i.e. 600 g N +400 g P2o5 + 400 g K2o at the time of release of water stress before flowering and remaining half dose of N should be applied two month after fruit setting.<\/span><\/div>\n<\/li>\n- \n
Application of 600 g N + 600 g P2o5 + 300 g k2o + 7.5 kg Neem cake per tree per year is recommended to Acid lime trees for obtaining maximum fruit yield at superior quality. The fertilizer should be applied in two split up doses, i.e. 300 g N + 30 g p2o5 + 300 g K2o + 7.5 kg Neem cake before flowering and remaining half dose of N should be applied two month after fruit setting.<\/span><\/div>\n<\/li>\n- \n
In decline Nagpur mandarin orchard, medium type of pruning consisting removed of terminal shoots up to 45 cm in the month of June is recommended for rejuvenation and maximum yield of superior quality of fruits. Immediately after pruning a recommended dose of fertilizer and spraying of fungicide and insecticide should applied.<\/span><\/div>\n<\/li>\n- \n
For Nagpur mandarin plantation 6 x 6 m spacing is recommended in Vidarbha region which is suitable for higher yield with superior quality fruit production.<\/span><\/div>\n<\/li>\n- \n
In old declining Acid lime orchard medium type of pruning in first week of June (removal of terminal shoots up to 45 cm) is recommended for maximum yield of superior quality.<\/span><\/div>\n<\/li>\n- \n
One spray of Cycocel 1000 ppm is recommended for induction of flowering at the time of starting of water stress to Nagpur mandarin in Mrig bahar.<\/span><\/div>\n<\/li>\n- \n
Green gram or Onion seed production is recommended as inter crop in Acid lime orchard.<\/span><\/div>\n<\/li>\n- \n
The spraying of GA3 20 ppm or Thiourea 0.1 % four times at monthly interval starting from 45 days after transplanting of Rough lemon rootstock seedlings which were stunted and not up to mark for scion budding in Nagpur mandarin was found effective for vigorous growth of rootstock and scion.<\/span><\/div>\n<\/li>\n- \n
It is recommended that, the inter-cropping of cotton should not be taken up in pre bearing mandarin orchard.<\/span><\/div>\n<\/li>\n- \n
A spraying of glycel 41 % SL @ 1.00 % + 2.00 % urea (10 ml glycel + 20 g urea per litre of water) was recommended at 25 days after germination of weeds in rainy season for effective weed control in Nagpur mandarin.<\/span><\/div>\n<\/li>\n- \n
The spraying of GA3 25 ppm or urea 1% on Rangpur lime seedlings four times at monthly interval starting from 45 days after transplanting was recommended for obtaining the seedling of better vegetative growth and more percentage of seedlings of buddable size.<\/span><\/div>\n<\/li>\n- \n
Seventy per cent agro-net is recommended for covering the bud grafts of Nagpur mandarin budded on Jamberi\/Rangpur lime rootstock for getting the higher vegetative growth and reducing the mortality of bud grafts. This net should be covered on budding immediately after budding in February till the onset of rain in nursery.<\/span><\/div>\n<\/li>\n- \n
The Nagpur mandarin orchard in black cotton soil, where the stress is insufficient due to pre-monsoon rains, the spray of 3000 ppm Cultar in stress condition in the first fortnight of May is recommended for assured flowering, fruit setting and yield of fruits.<\/span><\/div>\n<\/li>\n- \n
Application of 450 N + 225 K2o through drip & 300 g P (SSP) through soil application per tree per year is recommended to Acid lime trees for obtaining maximum yield of superior quality fruit<\/span><\/div>\n<\/li>\n- \n
