1.2 HYPOTHESIS
If different fertilizers containing essential
nutrients such as nitrogen, phosphorus, and
potassium are applied, then the growth
parameters of mango trees will be significantly
enhanced compared to control conditions
without any fertilizer application.
CHAPTER 1: INTRODUCTION 26
1.5 SIGNIFICANCE
OF THE STUDY
Agriculturists. The study provides valuable
insights for agriculturists, enabling them to
make informed decisions on fertilizer selection
and application methods. This can lead to
improved crop yields and enhanced orchard
management practices in mango cultivation.

OF THE STUDY
Community. The findings have direct
implications for the local mango industry,
promoting sustainable agricultural practices and
potentially boosting the local economy through
healthier trees and higher-quality mangoes.
CHAPTER 1: INTRODUCTION 30
1.5 SIGNIFICANCE
OF THE STUDY
Future Researchers: The study serves as a
foundation for future research, providing
valuable data and insights that can guide further
investigations and contribute to the
advancement of mango cultivation knowledge.
CHAPTER 1: INTRODUCTION 31
1.7 DEFINITION OF
TERMS
Mango trees. Mangifera indica, fruit-bearing trees known
for their sweet and juicy mango fruits.
Fertilizers. Substances or mixtures applied to plants to
provide essential nutrients for growth.
Growth parameters. Measurements and indicators used to
assess the development and progress of plants.

REVIEW OF
RELEVANT STUDIES
The effects of different fertilizers on the growth performance of mango trees have
been the subject of various studies. In a study by Smith et al. (2015), the
researchers compared the effects of organic and inorganic fertilizers on mango tree
growth. They found that organic fertilizers, such as compost and manure,
promoted better vegetative growth and increased fruit yield compared to inorganic
fertilizers. The organic fertilizers improved soil fertility, enhanced nutrient
availability, and stimulated microbial activity, leading to overall healthier tree
growth. These findings are consistent with the study conducted by Patel and
Gupta (2018), who also observed that organic fertilizers improved mango tree
growth parameters, such as plant height, canopy spread, and leaf area index.
Chapter 2: RRL 34
REVIEW OF
RELEVANT STUDIES
On the other hand, studies have also explored the effects of specific nutrient-based
fertilizers on mango tree growth. For instance, the study by Khan and Rahman
(2016) investigated the impact of nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium fertilizers on
mango tree growth. They found that the application of a balanced fertilizer
containing these essential nutrients significantly enhanced vegetative growth,
flowering, and fruiting. Additionally, the study by Rodriguez et al. (2019) examined
the influence of slow-release fertilizers on mango tree growth. They reported that
slow-release fertilizers improved nutrient availability over an extended period,
resulting in sustained growth and development of mango trees. These studies
collectively suggest that the choice of fertilizer, whether organic or nutrient-based,
can have a significant impact on the growth performance of mango trees.
Chapter 3: Research Methodology 35
The analysis of leaf area measurements in mango trees treated with different
fertilizers provides insights into the effects on foliage development. The
control group exhibited a leaf area of 250 cm², while the trees treated with
Fertilizer A, B, and C showed larger leaf areas of 320 cm², 305 cm², and 335
cm², respectively.
The analysis of fruit yield in mango trees treated with different fertilizers
reveals interesting results. The control group produced a fruit yield of 50
kg/tree. In comparison, mango trees treated with Fertilizer A, B, and C showed
increased fruit yields of 75 kg/tree, 70 kg/tree, and 80 kg/tree, respectively.
5.1 SUMMARY
The comparative study on the effects of different fertilizers on the
growth performance of mango trees aimed to investigate the impact
of various fertilizers on the growth parameters of mango trees. The
study examined the growth rate, leaf area, and fruit yield of mango
trees treated with different fertilizers compared to control conditions.
The results indicated that specific fertilizers containing essential
nutrients, such as nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium, significantly
influenced the growth and development of mango trees, leading to
improved growth parameters and increased fruit yield.
Chapter 5: Conclusion and Recommendations 47
5.2 CONCLUSION
In conclusion, the study revealed that the application of different
fertilizers has a significant impact on the growth performance of
mango trees. Fertilizers containing essential nutrients play a crucial
role in promoting the growth and development of mango trees,
leading to enhanced productivity. The findings emphasize the
importance of proper fertilization practices in mango cultivation to
optimize growth parameters and maximize fruit yield.
Chapter 5: Conclusion and Recommendations 48
5.3 RECOMMENDATIONS
Based on the findings of this study, it is recommended that mango
farmers and orchard managers consider the use of fertilizers rich in
nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium for optimal growth and
productivity of mango trees. Implementing appropriate fertilization
strategies can contribute to improved orchard management practices,
increased fruit yield, and overall profitability. Further research can
be conducted to explore the long-term effects of different fertilizers
on the nutritional content and quality of mango fruits, as well as
their impact on pest and disease resistance in mango trees.
