| Fruit loss problem |
|
One day Mr. Nono, the farmers of fruits (mango,) pride in his yard watching the mango crop starts flowering. This indicates that the tree will bear fruit soon. However, after waiting at the time of his mango tree was not too fruitful. Even if there is, the fruit is still small and large before falling (loss) before cooking. What's wrong with mango plants (or other fruits)? Loss incurred during this fruit is inseparable from two main factors, namely the influence of internal and external factors. internal factors include the balance of nutrients and hormones in plants, the fertility rate tepungsari, ability / compactness of the reproductive organs as well as other conditions that support the process of fruit development from conception until the optimal development of fruit to be harvested, such as water availability. While external factors include: soil fertility, climatic conditions (high rainfall and the amount of wind) and pest attacks. Example: In nature, flowers, mangoes appeared approximately one month after the rain ended and will take approximately four months to be able to harvest the fruit. During the formation and development, the intensity of the loss could reach 99%. This event is related to pressure by various factors, among others:1. A lack of nutrients and plant hormones (auxin and gliberin) at the time the plant enters the reproductive period, resulted in increased loss of fruit caused by the existence of competition in nutrients and plant hormones. 2. Failure of fertilization persarian and so the fruit does not produce seeds that are very useful gliberin supplier for fruit development. With the failure of seed formation, then cause the fruit to fall out. 3. Lack of water availability during fruit development, so the spur formation on the base layer absisi fruit stalk. In these circumstances, the fruit is very weak condition, so with just a little pressure, the fruit will fall off easily. 4. Conditions are less fertile land that can not meet crop nutrient needs during the period of fruit development. 5. Unfavorable climatic conditions such as very high rainfall and the wind. 6. Pests and diseases especially those that attack fruit, such as fruit flies (Dacus sp) and borer (Norda albizonalis) and Antraknose and Diplodia. Pests and diseases is also influenced by climatic conditions at that time. Control efforts ever undertaken Although this fruit is always experienced loss of fruit farmers, but that does not mean they resigned. Various efforts have been good was done by the farmers themselves or by institutions as a step in overcoming peneltiian at least reduce the level of fruit loss terlau not to much. the method is by watering during the repoduksi two times a week can increase yield 49%. Meanwhile, on the part of farmers, fruit loss prevention is done by fumigation in the garden before the mango flowering season. In theory, to smoke (smoke give) means to raise the content of ethylene gas which can indeed stimulate flowering, so the flowers can appear earlier in a safer condition. Enhanced plant nutrient elements by providing a quality organic fertilizer (See Methods for making organic fertilizer) and for pest control organic pesticide see how making a friendly and safe for the environment and health.
