| dc.description | A field study was conducted at Central Horticultural Experiment Station (ICAR-IIHR), Bhubaneswar, India, during2007-2013 in a new mango orchard of the variety ‘Arka Neelachal Kesri’ at 5m x 5m spacing, to conserve rain-waterand to enhance soil moisture availability during dry periods for augmenting plant growth and fruit production. Amongthe four in situ rain-water harvesting techniques (cup-and-plate, half-moon, full-moon, and trench) evaluated incombination with three types of mulch (no mulch, inorganic mulch, and organic mulch), the cup-and-plate systemresulted in maximum annual increment in vegetative growth and fruit yield (4.67kg/plant), while, organic (paddystraw) and inorganic (black polythene, 100μμμμμ thickness) mulches improved vegetative growth, fruit yield and TSS infruit significantly over no mulch. | |
