Abstract

A field investigation was conducted to study the Effect of inorganic and organic sources of nutrients on physico-chemical composition of mango (Mangifera indica L) cv. Amrapali under high density orchard at Horticulture Complex, Maharajpur, Jawaharlal Nehru Krishi Vishwa Vidyalaya, Jabalpur (M.P.) during 2012–13 and 2013–14. A total of twenty four treatment combinations of inorganic and organic sources on nutrient were tested in factorial randomized block design with three replications. The fruit weight (177.5 g), length (9.67 cm) and width (7.68 cm) was recorded with the application of 125% recommended dose of chemical fertilizer and the higher TSS (22.60°B), total sugar (18.87%), non-reducing sugar (13.94%), reducing sugar (4.94%), ascorbic acid (60.08mg 100g pulp−1) and TSS: Acid ratio (66.86) was recorded with recommended dose of chemical fertilizer applied in combination of Vermicompost (25 kg plant−1) + Oil cake (2.5 kg plant−1) + Azotobacter + VAM + Trichoderma viridi + PSB (100g plant−1 of each inoculants).
