Cultivars(1980) Nagabhushanam, S.; Mohan, E.; Murthy, K.N.Item Leaf Nutrient Content of Cashew :As Influenced by Different Methods of Fertiliser Application(2007-02) Harishu Kumar, P.; Nagabhushanam, S.Among the three methods of soil application tested, double ring method seems to enable quicker absorption of NPK, closely followed by the pocket method than the traditional method. The leaf tissue concentration for the three major nutrients was also maintained in the two methods at a higher level and for a longer period.Item More on Vegetative Methods(2007-02) Nagabhushanam, S.; Murthy, K.N.; Mohan, E.Item Mount Layers of Cashew (Anacardium Occidentale L.)(2007-02) Menon, M.A.; Nagabhushanam, S.Item A Note on Field Establishment of Cashew (Anacardium Occident Ale L.) Air Layers(2007-02) Nagabhushanam, S.; Murthy, K.N.; Mohan, E.Air layers on separation from the mother tree and treated them with cow-dung + urea solution for one hour resulted in securing high percentage of survival in polybags. The air layers when planted along with seedlings gave significantly a better field establishment.Item Preliminary Studies on Propagation of Cashew by Stooling and Layering(2007-02) Nagabhushanam, S.Item Prospects of Vegetative Prorogation in Cashew (Anacardium Occidentale L)by Airlayering(2007-02) Nagabhushanam, S.; Murthy, K.N.Item Short Scientific Notes :Juvenile Growth Characters of Air Layers and Seedlings in four Cashew (Anacardium Occidentale L.) Cultivars(1980) Nagabhushanam, S.; Mohan, E.; Murthy, K.N.Item Some Promising Cashew Selections and Hybrids in Andhra Pradesh(1977) Nagabhushanam, S.; Dasaradhi, T.B.; Venkata Rao, P.Item Stone Grafting In Cashew(1982) Nagabhushanam, S.; Mohan, E.A maximum success of 30 per cent was secured with stone grafting in July when the precipitation and relative humidity were high. Stone grafting done in two different methods (cleft and whip method) did not show any significant difference between the two methods during the period of the trial.Item Studies On Vegetative Propagation Of Cashew (Anacardium Occidentale L.)(1982) Nagabhushanam, S.Different techniques of vegetative propagation namely, veneer grafting, patch budding, side grafting, epicotyl grafting, mound layering, air layering and stem cuttings have been tried with varied degrees of success. Large scale multiplication of high yielding cashew trees was found feasible using eipcotyl grafting. Success was obtained with veneer grafting and airlayering also. Side grafting could be made use to improve uneconomic young cashew trees in the plantation.Item A Study On Epicotyl Grafting In Cashew,(Anacardium Occidentale L)(1982) Nagabhushanam, S.Tender cashew seedlings of nearly 15 days old when used as root stocks for epicotyl grafting by cleft method gave success ranging from 45 to 68 per cent in two successive years during monsoon period. This technique ensures quick multiplication in a given time within an unit area of the space unlike in any other method of grafting or budding where the lime lag would be anywhere from 6-8 months to produce a graft of planting size. Further, epicotyl grafting can be practised indoors during heavy rainy season and works out economical for large scale multiplication.Item Variation in mineral composition of leaves of cashew (anacardium occidental L.)as affected by season,position and age(1982) Harishu Kumar, P.; Nair, B.P.; Rakhiappan, P.; Nagabhushanam, S.; Mohan, E.Flowering and fruiting had a depressive effect on the major nutrient composition of cashew leaves Leaves of top portions did not vary in their N P K contents with that of lower portions. Freshly matured leaves, emerged after fruiting recorded higher contents of NPK than the matured leaves of previous season. The variation among the trees with respect to NPK contents of freshly matured leaves is less as compared to older leaves.Item Vegetative Propagation in Cashew -Review of Work Done at Vittal(1984) Nagabhushanam, S.Different techniques of vegetative propagation in cashew were tried with varied degrees of success at C.P.C.R.I., Regional Station, Vittal during 1977-78. The techniques tried were: (i) Veneer grafting on six month old seedlings raised in polybags, (ii) Side grafting on 3-5 year old cashew trees, (iii) Patch building on six month old seedlings raised in polybags, (iv) Patch budding in situ on one year old shoots in adult trees, (v) Air-layering, (vi) Mound layering, (vii) Cleft-grating on 8-10 month old seedlings raised in polybags, (viii) Whip-grafting on 8-10 month old seedlings raised in polybags, (ixj Stone-grafting on 40-45 days old seedlings and (x) Stem cuttings. The technique of air-layering was significantly superior over other techniques during the period of March to May. The techniques, side grafting (June, July and October) and patch budding in situ (April, May and June) were at par. Veneer grafting and patch budding tried on six month old seedlings raised in polybags did not give encouraging results. In mound layering trials 64 per cent of shoots struck roots and 72 per cent of them had established in polybags. The percentage take in cleft grafting was high in September (58%) followed by 54 per cent in August while the success in whip grafting being 44 and 40 per cent in August and September months respectively. Air layers on separation from the mother tree and nursed in polybags for about three weeks when transplanted in the mainfield established upto 94 per cent. Similarly veneer grafts and budded plants gave 92 and 80 per cent establishment in the field.
