Abstract
Mango is the most important fruit crop of India in terms of acreage, genetic diversity, consumers’ preference and market potential. In spite of the adoption of scientific production technology, productivity of mango is still less than 7.5 t/ha, which may be due to low-density plantation, irregularity in bearing and poor orchard management. Hence, there is ample scope to increase mango productivity by adopting a high-density planting system (HDPS), optimizing plant canopy architecture and ensuring regularity in bearing. Under HDPS, plant density may be increased by 4–16 times compared to the conventional planting system (100 plants/ha), which provides an opportunity for increasing productivity provided canopy regulation and regularity in flowering are ensured.
