Abstract/ Executive Summary:

The experiment was conducted at Regional Agricultural Research Station, BARI, Ishurdi, Pabna in 2019 to find out the effective and economic fruit bagging technology to protect fruit from insect and sunburn disorder. Five different bags viz., Brown paper bag (double layer), white bag (single layer), nylon bag (60 mesh), cloth bag and control were used in five litchi varieties (Bombai, Madrazi, Kadmi, China-3 and BARI Litchi-4). Fruits bagging produced quality fruit over control. Among the bags white bagging is the most economic and also effective technology. However, fruit cracking was not controlled by bagging.

Keywords: Litchi, Litchi cultivation, Fruit, Fertilizers, Bombai Litchi, Madrazi Litchi, Kadmi Litchi, China-3 Litchi, BARI Litchi-4 Litchi, Bagging

Location: Regional Agricultural Research Station, BARI, Ishurdi, Pabna, Bangladesh

Start Date: 00-00-2018

End Date: 00-00-2019

Program Area: Crop-Soil-Water Management

Commodity: Litchi, Cropping System

Objectives:

To protect the fruit from fruit borer invasion and sun burn disorder of litchi.

Methodology:

The experiment was conducted at Regional Agricultural Research Station, BARI, Ishurdi, Pabna during 2019 to study the effects of bagging technology in Litchi. Five different bags viz., Brown paper bag (double layer), white bag (single layer), nylon bag (60 mesh), cloth bag and control were used in five litchi varieties, such as Bombai, Madrazi, Kadmi, China-3 and BARI Litchi-4. Bagging was done 45 days after fruit set. Intercultural operations (weeding, irrigation, fertilization and pest and diseases management) were done as and when necessary.

Achievement/Findings:

Fruits of some cultivar were harvested before proper maturity due to Eid vacation and unexpected theft. That is why, proper data were not collected. The experiment will be continued in the following year to confirm the result.
