Abstract/ Executive Summary:

The experiment was conducted at ARS, Burirhat, Rangpur during 2013-14 with four BARI released mango varieties namely BARI Aam-1, BARI Aam-2, BARI Aam-3 and BARI Aam-4 to evaluate their performance in Rangpur area. Among 4 varieties, The plant height varied from 8.5 m (BARI Aam-1) to 4.76 m (BARI Aam-4). BARI Aam-1 gave early flowering (1^st week of February) while BARI Aam-4 gave late flowering (3^rd week of February). Time of harvesting of different mango varieties varied from 2^nd week of June (BARI Aam-1) to 3^rd week of July (BARI Aam-4). Average fruit weight was maximum in BARI Aam-4 (454.33 g) and minimum in BARI Aam-1 (194.2g). The largest stone was found in BARI Aam-1 (54.53 g) while smallest stone was in BARI Aam-3 (33.0 g). Maximum edible portion was recorded from BARI Aam-4 (78.63%) followed by BARI Aam-2 (77.54%) whereas minimum edible portion was recorded from BARI Aam-1 (52.94%). Maximum TSS was recorded from BARI Aam-3 (19.6%) while minimum was from BARI Aam-1 & 4 (18.5%). Number of fruits as well as yield per plant was maximum in BARI Aam-4 (270.0 and 122.66 kg, respectively) whereas minimum in BARI Aam-1(146.6 and 28.46 kg, respectively).

Keywords: Adaptability, Mango, Rangpur region

Location: Agricultural Research Station, Burirhat, Rangpur

Start Date: 00-00-2007

End Date: 00-00-2014

Program Area: Crop-Soil-Water Management

Commodity: Mango

Objectives:

To study the adaptability of BARI released mango varieties in the Rangpur region.
To select suitable mango varieties in the Rangpur region.

Methodology:

The experiment was carried out at ARS, Burirhat, Rangpur during 2013-14. Four mango varieties namely BARI Aam-1, BARI Aam-2, BARI Aam-3 and BARI Aam-4 were in the experiment. The samplings of BARI Aam-1, 2 & 3 were planted in July 2000 but BARI Aam-4 were planted in July 2005. The experiment was laid out in a randomized complete block design with three replications. Each plant constituted the unit of replication. The plants were fertilized with manures and fertilizers according to recommendation of BARI Krishi Projukti Hatboi (5^th edition). Intercultural operations were done as and when necessary. Data on tree age, plant height (m), base girth (m), canopy spread (m), time of flowering, time of harvesting, average fruit wt.(g), skin wt. (g), stone wt. (g), fruit length (cm), fruit breadth (cm), edible portion (%), TSS (%), number of fruits/plant, yield/plant (kg)were recorded and analyzed statistically.
