Off season mango production: A false technology for against nature

India is the second largest producer of fruits in the world next to China. Among the different fruit crops, Mango is the national fruit of India and contributing to 51% of world total production till 2022. Various technologies were developed and released by the National Institute and State Agricultural Universities to increase production of Mango for the benefit of farming communities. Among them, off season production of flowering (July-August) and fruiting (December- January) in mango through use of chemicals (Paclobutrazol) is practiced by the farmer to get remunerative price for produce. The chemical not only reduce soil microbial count and also reduce the longevity of fruit tree. The nature is given in India to harvest mango fruits from beginning of February to October in different states. The only three months (Nov-January) consumer unable to get mangoes which is also possible through unusual phenomenon of regular off-season crop at Kanyakumari (the southernmost tip of the Indian peninsula) has been attributed to the influence of the fairly well distributed rainfall of the area. Hence, the off season production technology in mango is against nature and forcing the tree to bear two crops per year which is expecting like two children per year.
