Effect of chemicals on flowering and yield of custard apple (Annona Squamosa L.) CV. Dharur-6

The experiment was conducted on five year old well established Custard apple orchard at Custard Apple Research Station, Ambejogai, during 2018–19 to study the effect of chemicals on flowering and yield of Custard apple (Annona squamosa L.) cv. Dharur-6. Among the treatment Brassinosteroid (2 ppm) recorded minimum days for first flower initiation (17.33) and days for peak flowering (44.83), while maximum number of fruits per plant (77.52) were recorded with the application of NAA (20ppm) The yield per plant (14.28 Kg), marketable yield (9.89 kg) and yield per ha (8.92 t) was recorded with the application of Brassinosteroid (1ppm)
