How to Irrigate Guava plants in the farms

Updated: Feb 16

Guava is mostly grown under rain fed condition. 


During winter season, irrigation is provided at an interval of 20-25 days


During summer months it is provided at an interval of 10-15 days by the ring method.


Drip irrigation has proved to be very beneficial for guava.


About 60% of the water used for irrigation is saved.  


Besides substantial increase in size and number of fruits is observed.


Guavas prefer regular deep root watering, allow the soil to dry out somewhat between waterings.


Provide regular water during the growing season, and reduce watering during the winter.


Apply water at the base of the tree, avoiding its foliage getting wet to prevent fungal disease.


The older branches of the guava tree produce larger size guava fruit.


So to promote branch growth, the tree must receive regular water
