Abstract
Citrus reticulata, sometimes known as the Kinnow Mandarin, is a widely grown citrus fruit prized for its juicy, tasty segments and high nutritional content. Several agronomic techniques, including pruning, the administration of micronutrients, and the use of plant growth regulators, have been used to optimize the development and quality of Kinnow Mandarin fruits. The effects of pruning, micronutrients, and plant growth regulators on the growth and attributes of Kinnow Mandarin fruits are summarized in this work. Pruning citrus trees, such as Kinnow Mandarin trees, is a crucial cultural tradition. In addition to promoting optimal light penetration, enhancing air circulation, and stimulating fruit production, effective pruning procedures can also aid improve tree architecture. The effects of pruning, micronutrients, and PGRs on plant spread, pre-harvest fruit drop, and fruit quality of Kinnow Mandarin fruit were investigated in an experiment. Plant growth regulators, micronutrients, and pruning are all essential for promoting the growth and development of Kinnow Mandarin fruits. Enhancing fruit quality, productivity, and general plant health requires these practices. Letââ¬â¢s examine how each of them influences the Kinnow Mandarin fruit. Pruning, which entails the selective removal of plant components, is an essential horticultural procedure. In conclusion, the growth and development of Kinnow Mandarin fruits are significantly influenced by pruning, micronutrients, and plant growth regulators. Micronutrients make sure that the needed materials for various physiological processes are readily available, whilst pruning aids in maintaining an ideal canopy structure. Regulators of plant development improve fruit size, quality, and post-harvest qualities further. Farmers may increase yields, enhance fruit quality, and increase the profitability of their Kinnow Mandarin orchards by efficiently applying these practices.
