Abstract

In the recent years, various crop production strategies are adopted for increasing production and productivity of agriculture and horticulture crops. One such concept is the adoption of closer planting density for enhanced utilization of resources thereby reducing the gestation period and increasing the productivity of the crop. Right selection of different components like suitable cultivars-rootstock, canopy management measures, space/land utilization, irrigation mode and scheduling nutrition delivery system, orchard planning and its layout is also very important in this context.
