jack fruit drop

It is normal to drop but too much of droppings can be reduced.

1.During oct Nov there should be enough water and you should apply enough fertilizer if you are going commercial cultivation.

2.During june july plouging in between trees and apply farm yard manure @ 5 to 10 tons and mulch it.Possibly you can apply rock phosphate @ 10 bags or 500 kg per acre or apply 4 bags superphosphate 200kgs

3.during oct nov or during your monsoon season apply 500 gms of urea and 750 gms of potash/ tree ,1 meter away from tree trunk in semi circular pit.


4.one of the major reason for fruit drop is micronutrient deficiency.You should apply a general micronutrient mixture which contains most of the nutrient which you can enquire in the fertilizer shop.10 kg / acre. you may see some improvement in the coming year.

5. to improve fruit size lot of things available in the market you try and found suitable one to your plant.

Dont forget to apply the fertilizer and micro nutrients once a year and you may get the full result in 2 or 3 years.
