Abstract: An investigation was conducted at Regional Fruit Research Station, Vengurla of Maharashtra, India during 2017-18 to standardize the organic nutrient with biofertilizers management protocol for mango. In this experiment, various organic sources along with various biofertilizers combinations were tested on thirty year old mango cultivar Alphonso to study the effect on fruiting and yield. The maximum number of fruits (52.00 fruits/tree) and while minimum yield (14.70 kg/tree) was recorded with T₂ while minimum number of fruits (35.00 fruits/tree) and yield (9.40 kg/tree) with T₁. High average weight of fruits (317.40 g) and minimum acidity (0.12%) was recorded with T₇, while less average weight of fruit (263.63 g) and maximum acidity (0.23%) was recorded with T₄. Based on the results, it may be concluded that application of FYM (50 kg/plant) + Azospirillum culture (250 g/tree) + PSB @ 250 g/tree was more remunerative in comparison to other treatments.
