Experiment Title Effect of time of inarch grafting on success and survival of guava.
Research Type Departmental Research
Experiment Background Guava (Psidium guajava L.) is one of the most common and major fruits of India and considered the fourth most important fruit in area and production after mango, banana and citrus. Guava is hardy, prolific bearer and highly remunerative fruit. However, the greatest handicap in guava plantation is indiscriminate multiplication of plants from unreliable sources by nursery men. Non-availability of quality planting material and consequent substitution of poor quality seedlings had adversely affected the guava production and productivity. Guava plants have been propagated through seeds for a long time. Propagation from seeds results in considerable variation in the size, shape and quality of fruits. Vegetative propagation in guava results in true-to-type crop with short juvenile phase. Guava is vegetatively propagated through budding, air layering, stooling and inarching. In view of above facts, an experiment was formulated to determine the appropriate time, suitable method and favourable condition of propagation in guava.
