A study of yields during seventeen years of bearing of seed propagated Coorg mandarin trees have been reported. Four year cumulative yields were found least variable. Negative correlations were obtained between yields before 10th year of bearing and those obtained afterwards. There is a definite cycle on the yield pattern of the citrus trees with a very low yield after two or three years of increasing yields. The coefficient of repeatability was found to be low.
