Abstract/Description: | Effect of pruning dates on fruit yield of guava was studied in a trial conducted on two guava cultivars i.e., Allahabad Safeda and Sardar for five consecutive years. As compared to pruning in February and March, pruning from April through June, enhanced number of shoots and flowering percentage. Shoot growth reduced in May and June pruned trees. Total yield during winter was increased significantly (p < 0.05) in May and June pruned trees than the unpruned trees of both the varieties. Harvest in winter season was significantly increased by May pruning. Pruning from February to March did not respond well for winter fruiting. Penetration of photosynthetic photon flux was generally greater in canopies of pruned trees than in unpruned trees during May and June. In all the years, the quantum of fruit yield harvestable during December and January increased significantly by May pruning. |
