Abstract

An investigation was undertaken at Bidhan Chandra Krishi Viswavidyalaya’s Horticultural Research Station, West Bengal during 2019-20 to observe the impact of time as well as severity of pruning on plant growth, flowering and fruiting of ber cv. BAU kul. The experiment consisted of eight treatments and three replications; heading back on 1stweek of March at 0.5m height as well as at 1.0m height, heading back on 3rdweek of March at 0.5m height as well as at 1.0 m height, heading back on 1stweek of April at 0.5m height as well as at 1.0m height, heading back on 3rdweek of April at 0.5m height as well as at 1.0m height. Pruning in April both at 0.5m and 1.0 m resulted higher fruit yield, shoot length, canopy spread than heading back at March which concluded that heading back done in April both at 0.5m and 1.0m height in ber proved superior.
