Mango (Mangifera indica L.) is known as "king of fruits" due to its delicious taste and unique flavor. It is an important tropical fruit, belongs to family Anacardiaceae, and has been cultivated all over the world. Mango is major fruit owing to its particular climatic requirements, taste, high nutritive value, its demand and trade is rapidly expanding across the globe. Mango orchards suffering different kind of problems in nursery, poor health of tree (field), quick decline, infestation of insects and pests and lack of proper nutrition, which are principles reasons for devastation of mango orchards. Therefore, to obtain high production, good nutrition is very important with good practices, which are certainly needed to improve orchard conditions. This study was carried out with different combinations of nutrients to understand the growth physiology, increase the yield response and reduce the occurrence of malformation of mango. As, it has been revealed that healthy trees are more resistant against all kind of natural problems. It was found that balanced nutrients (N, P, K) improve vegetative and reproductive growth, increased the yield and reduced the incidence of malformation .
The main purpose of writing this book is providing the maximum information to the mango growers about management strategies to overcome the mango malformation and improve the fruit quality. Because, mango (Mangifera indica L.) is known as "king of fruits" due to its delicious taste and excellent flavour. Unfortunately, it is subjected to a large number of disorders right from the plants in the nursery to the fruit in transit and storage, which ultimately results a low yield with poor fruit quality. Of these, mango malformation is most damaging and so far untraceable and uncontrollable. To achieve the goal of high production, the improvement of mango production practices is needed which should eliminate or minimize the potential obstacles in successful mango culture i.e. malformation. Various control measures have been suggested but none of these have been proved satisfactory because of the complex nature of this malady. Therefore the present work was initiated to ascertain the effectiveness of copper and non copper based fungicides as foliar sprays in minimizing the intensity of malformation of mango.
