Abstract: The present study was conducted to evaluatethe “Effect of pruning, organic and inorganic nutrition on yield attributing characters and yield of mango (Mangifera indica L.) cv. Amrapali was carried out at Main Experiment Station, Department of Horticulture, Narendra Deva University of Agriculture and Technology, Kumarganj, Ayodhya (U.P.) during the years 2015-16 and 2016-17.The experiments were conducted in Randomized Block Design with ten treatments and three replications. The detail of treatments were as T1-5 cm pruning+FYM@ 20 kg per plant, T2-5 cm pruning+ Vermicompost @ 10kg per plant, T3-5 cm pruning+ ZnSO4 @ 1.0% + Borax @ 0.4%, T4-10 cm pruning+ FYM@ 20kg+ Zinc sulphate@ 1.0% per plant, T5-10 cm pruning+ Vermicompost @10kg+ Borax @0.4% per plant, T6-10 cm pruning+PSB 250g+ MgSO4 @0.5% per plant, T7-15 cm pruning+FYM @20kg+ Zinc sulphate @1.0% per plant, T8-15 cm pruning+ Vermicompost @10kg+ Borax@0.4% per plant, T9-15 cm pruning+ PSB 250g+ MgSO4 @0.5% per plant, T10- Control (no pruning+ water spray). The maximum fruit length(11.54 and 11.79 cm), fruit width (5.46 and 5.30 cm), fruit weight (225.36 and 222.07 g),fruit volume (237.42 and 235.77cm3), pulp weight (171.67 and 171.80 g), stone ratio (3.89 and 4.01), fruit yield (25.65 and 26.98 kg/plant) and fruit yield (410.40 and 431.68 q/ha) was recorded with the treatment T8 (15 cm pruning + Vermicompost @10kg+ Borax @ 0.4%). However, minimum value of all characters was found with T10 (no pruning + water spray) during both the years.
