| dc.description.abstract | Yield performance of individual areca palms of Mangala arecanut plantation in comparison with local South Kanara types was studied at the Central Plantation Crops Research Institute, Regional Station, Vittal for continuous period of six years beginning from 1981. The study revealed that the Mangala variety of arecanut gives a mean yield of 12.67 kg of ripe nuts per palm as compared to South Kanara local which gives 8.59 kg per palm. About 50 per cent of the palms yielded more than 12 kg of ripe nuts/palm which was accounted to 70.17 per cent to the total garden yield while 29 per cent gave less than 10 kg of ripe nuts/palm with a contribution of 9.13 per cent of yield to that of total. Studies on the yielding behaviour of palms also revealed that 43.13 per cent of palms are regular bearers and the rest were found to be having alternate bearing habit and 7.5 per cent of palms had given less than 3.0 kg of yield of fresh nuts per palm while 1.6 per cent of palms yielded more than 30.0 kg/palm. | en_US |
