Abstract: The comparative study was conducted in hard lateritic rocky area during the fruiting season 2017-18 to assess the effect of irrigation during fruit development on yield of mango cv. Alphonso. The maximum fruit retention at harvest stage (5.95 per cent) and delayed maturity (103.93 days) were observed in the trees were irrigation was given (T₁). The highest fruit weight (236.37g) and yield (37.93 kg/tree) were also obtained in irrigation treatment indicating 36.98 per cent increased yield over control.
