Planting System cum High Density Planting in Guava (Psidium guajava L.) Growth Yield and Quality of cv. Sardar in Kymore Plateau of Madhya Pradesh

A study was conducted during 2010-2015 at Central Institute of Agricultural Engineering, Bhopal, to find out effect of irrigation and fertigation scheduling on growth, yield and quality of guava (Psidium guajava ). The ex-periments were laid out in factorial randomized block design with six treatment combinations which include three irrigation level (100, 80 and 60 %) along with two fertigation level (100 and 75 % water soluble fertilizers) and repli-cated thrice. The nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium fertilizers were applied through fertigation as well as soil ap-plication to test various attributes of five six old guava cv. L-49. The investigation indicated that the maximum plant height, Periphery of rootstock, yield per plant (kg/plant) and yield (t/ha) were higher under D1F1 (100 % irrigation with 100 % fertigation) followed by D2F1 (80 % irrigation with 100 % fertigation) and minimum under D3F2 (60 % irrigation with 75 % fertigation). Interaction effect was non-significant at 0.05 % level due to plant height (3.90 m) and Periphery of rootstock (26.26 cm) but significantly influenced by yield per plant (27.65 kg/plant) and yield (7.65 t/ha). Physico-chemical properties like fruit diameter (6.76 cm), fruit weight (182.10 g) and pulp weight (134.38 g) were significantly at 0.05 % due to different irrigation and fertigation level as well as interaction effects but fruit length (7.45 cm), TSS (13.22 %) and ascorbic acid (54.32 mg/100 g pulp) were non-significant due to different level of irri-gation and fertigation as well as interaction effect.

The present investigation entitled „„Effect of different levels of pruning on growth, yield and quality of guava. (Psidium guajava L.) Cv. Lalit” guava plant at the Horticulture Research Field, Department of Horticulture, SHUATS, Naini, Prayagraj agro-climatic condition during 2019-20. The data had been statistically analyzed by using Randomized Block Design. In this experiment, seven pruning treatments (control, 10 cm, 20 cm, 30 cm,40 cm, 50 cm and 60 cm) significantly influenced cropping pattern of guava viz. plant height (30, 60, 90, 120, 150 DAP), No. of flowers / tree, Fruit set (%), Days to first fruit harvest, Number of fruit per tree, Fruit weight (gm.), Fruit diameter (cm), Yield (Kg/Plant), Yield (t/ha.), TSS (%), Acidity (%). The maximum fruit yield was recorded in T4 (30 cm pruning) (13.33 kg) per plant and the minimum yield was recorded in T1 (Control) (8.19 kg) per plant.

Planting System

A field experiment to standardize the levels of pruning and growth regulator application in guava (Psidium guajava L.) cv. Lucknow-49 was undertaken at Horticultural College and Research Institute, Periyakulam during 2016-2017. The experiment consists of seven different levels of pruning and growth regulator application and the treatments were imposed on two years old trees. The result of the experiment revealed that, the treatment T5 (Light pruning + Paclobutrazol application) recorded the highest mean fruit weight, fruit length, fruit circumference, fruit pulp weight. Major objective of canopy management in guava cv. Lucknow -49 under high density planting system is to maximize the yield and maintaining the optimum canopy without overlapping. In a nutshell, taking into consideration of the performance of various pruning and chemical treatments, particularly yield and yield components, the treatment followed by T3 (Moderate pruning + Paclobutrazol application) in guava cv. Lucknow – 49 under high density planting system.
