Mango Farming 

Mango trees grow best in tropical and warmer subtropical climates

They trees grow well in sunny spot with loose, well-draining soil

Mulching the planting site with black plastic to  warm the soil ahead of planting, hinder weed growth and keep developing fruits clean.

Seeds should be planted in one inches deep and about 3 feet apart.

Irrigate the area when you are finished planting

Mango trees have some drought tolerance.

It's best to water whenever the top couple inches of soil dries out, but do not let the soil soggy

Use drip irrigation to keep plants consistently and evenly watered

Ensure Mulching around the plants can help to retain moisture and reduce weeds

Reduce watering once fruits are growing

Mango trees don’t need a lot of fertilizer.. However slow-release balanced fertilizer can be applied to the soil for better yield.

Key nutrients for mango production are nitrogen (N), potassium (K), calcium (Ca) and boron (B). These 4 nutrients is the key to good productivity and fruit quality in mangoes.

When cow manure is properly composted, it is one of the best sources of nutrients for this fruit tree

Manures should be applied in circular basins from the base of the tree.

If drip irrigation is available, Liquid Fertilizer like Fish Amino or Jeevamartham can be diluted in water can be sent through the drip lines.
 

Normally mango trees takes 120 to 140  days from fruit set to harvest a mature mango fruit.

Dark green fruits start turning pale green to yellowish in color at maturity

Mango fruits are generally harvested manually using a picking pole with net bag attached for catching the fruit
