Himsagar Mango plant practices:
Himsagar mango thrives in warm tropical climates with dry periods during flowering.
It prefers deep, well-drained alluvial or loamy soils with a pH of 6.0–7.5.
Prepare the land by deep ploughing and leveling, removing weeds and debris.
Recommended planting spacing is 8–10 meters between plants.
Use grafted plants for uniform growth and true-to-type Himsagar fruit quality.
Apply 20–25 kg FYM and recommended NPK fertilizers annually for balanced nutrition.
Irrigate young plants regularly; adult trees need water during fruit set and development, avoiding waterlogging.
Practice weeding and mulching around the basin to conserve moisture.
Monitor and manage pests like fruit fly, mango hopper and diseases like powdery mildew using IPM.
Harvest fruits at physiological maturity (greenish-yellow) for best sweetness and aroma.
