“…Among the three varieties, Bhaskara recorded maximum mean plant height (4.70 m), it was followed by 3.31 m in NRCC Sel-2 (3.31 m) and 3.07 m in H-130 (Table 1). Similar results have been reported for plant height in the previous studies in cashew (Tripathy et al 2015).The genotypic effect of variety on plant height was more pronounced in the plants under ultra density due to the heavy pruning suggesting that the pruning response of a cultivar is genetically determined. The genotypes which are less responsive to pruning produce excessive vegetative growth and poor reproductive traits and thus, yield poor.…”

“…With respect to spacing, the plants spaced at 5×5 m were recorded highest fruit weight (94.85 g), fruit length (6.16 cm) and fruit width (4.87 cm) and least values were observed in 2.5 × 2.5 m for apple weight (78.80 g) and apple length (5.61 cm). Similar observations were recorded in cashew (Tripathy et al 2015) and other fruit crops like mango (Sousa et al 2012, Gaikwad et al 2017. V1-H-130, V2-NRCC Sel.…”

“…The least values of apple characters were noticed in ultra density planting system compared to other wider space planting. It is mainly because of more number of panicles per unit canopy area which leads to competition for nutrients among fruits within the panicle (Tripathy et al 2015). Among the different varieties, H-130 recorded highest apple weight (102.12 g), apple length (6.03 cm) and apple width (4.94 cm) while lowest apple weight (80.53 g) and apple width (4.48 cm) was noticed in variety Bhaskara.…”

Performance of cashew (Anacardium occidentale) varieties under different planting density for growth and yield traits

Cashew (Anacardium occidentale L) is an important tropical tree crop revered for its economic and nutritional needs. The demand for cashew is increasing significantly in both domestic and international markets. Planting density and tree canopy influence the yield performances of tree crops. Planting of trees at higher densities in orchards offers high yield potential. In the current study, a field experiment was conducted to study the effect of planting density on growth and yield of different varieties of cashew during 2013-14 to 2017-18. The three varieties, viz. H-130, NRCC Sel. 2 and Bhaskara were planted at three different planting systems, viz. ultra density (2.5 × 2.5 m), high density (5.0 × 5.0 m) and normal density (7.5 × 7.5 m) and evaluated for growth and yield traits. The heading back was carried out in ultra density planting during the last week of May in all the years. The results revealed significant differences for yield and related traits among cashew varieties under different plant densities. The maximum yield was recorded in variety H-130 planted at 2.5 × 2.5 m spacing during second year (1248 kg/ha), third year (2234 kg/ha) and fourth (2432 kg/ha) year of planting and minimum (154 kg/ha) was observed in variety Bhaskara at 2.5 × 2.5 m spacing. The variety H-130 performed well in all the three different planting systems compare to NRCC Sel. 2 and Bhaskara due to positive response of pruning.

Field experiment was conducted at Cocoa Research Institute of Nigeria sub-station Ochaja, to evaluate the impact of manure and intercrops on cashew tree growth, canopy development and yield. Treatments consisted of Bambara and Sesame intercrops and manuring using Cocoa pod husk (CPH) and NPK fertilizer applied at the rate of 0, 1,713kg and 400kg/ha respectively. The experiment was laid out in a split-split plot design with three replications and monitored within the two years of study. Data collected includes: Plant height, Stem girth and canopy North-South/East-West direction. These was used to calculate: crown diameter, canopy spread, canopy volume, canopy ground cover and canopy ground cover percentage. The results showed that the growth characters of Cashew were positively influenced by alley crops of Sesame and Bambara nut and manuring. Manuring with CPH exerted differences in the responses of cashew to alley crops, in particular, canopy development. Intercropping with a combination of bambara-sesame and the application of NPK fertilizer proved to have the highest Cashew growth development but showed no significant differences on the yield and yield attribute. The GGE biplot results identified the best intercrop system for each of the three-fertilizer type treatment. Within the two years of the experiment, Cashew development was not hampered by the introduction of the different intercropping systems.

A two-year experiment was conducted to study the response of manuring on growth and canopy development on three-year-old Cashew trees. The experiment was laid in a randomized complete block design, with three replications. Soil characteristics including the chemical and physical properties were analyzed before and after the experiments. Fecti-plus organic pelletized fertilizer was applied at different rates of 0,750.6 and 1,501.2 kg/ha-1 respectively around the circumference of the tree. Before the application, the fertilizer sample was also analyzed. Data collected were plant height, stem girth, canopy dynamics which includes: Canopy diameter, canopy radius, canopy spread (North-South and East-West directions), canopy volume, canopy ground cover and percentage ground cover. The results from the pre soil sample show a relatively low status but were significantly enhanced after the application of the pelletized organic fertilizer (Ferti-plus). The soil nutrient composition of Oc, Om, N, K, Na, Ca and Mg+ was significantly highest in the plots having 1,501.2 kg/ha-1 treatments. Generally, there was a significant increase in the soil nutrient with the addition of pelletized fertilizer in respective of the rate of application. Also the results on the canopy dynamic in terms of canopy volume, spread and diameter revealed better development with the use of 1501.2 kg/ha-1 pelletized fertilizer and significantly different to 750.6 kg/ha-1 and those in the no-manure (control)plots. Meanwhile, the use of pelletized organic fertilizer gave superior growth and canopy development. It also influenced the growth of the Cashew plants, as well as the physical and chemical properties of the soil status.
