Description

American Red Palmar :-

The Palmer mango (Mangifera indica ‘Palmer’) originated from a seed planted in Miami, Florida, during the early 20th century and has since become a widely cultivated variety. The fruit is elongated-oval in shape and weighs typically between 500 to 1000 grams. It ripens late in the season, usually from July to September in Florida and similar climates, making it a valuable extension crop after other varieties have finished.

Palmer mangoes mature with a distinctive deep red to purple blush, even when still green, making them visually attractive. However, they should not be picked solely based on color, as their flesh ripens internally and may still be green externally.

The pulp is orange to deep yellow, nearly fiberless, and has a mildly sweet to rich flavor with low acidity. Its firm texture and excellent shelf life make it a good choice for export and long-distance transport.

American Palmer Mango – Cultivation Guide

The Palmer mango, originally developed in Florida, is widely grown in tropical and subtropical regions due to its late-season harvest, large fruit size, and excellent marketability. Here’s a complete guide to its cultivation:

🌱 1. Climate & Soil Requirements

Factor	Requirement
Climate	Tropical to subtropical; frost-free
Temperature	24–35°C optimal; young trees sensitive to cold
Rainfall	1000–1500 mm annually; avoid waterlogging
Soil Type	Well-drained sandy loam, laterite, or alluvial
Soil pH	5.5 to 7.5

🌳 2. Planting Details

Detail	Description
Spacing	8 m × 8 m or 10 m × 10 m (about 100–156 trees/ha)
Planting Time	Best during monsoon or spring (June–August)
Pit Size	1 m³ pits filled with topsoil + compost + neem cake
Propagation	Grafted plants (monoembryonic seed; not true-to-type)

💧 3. Water Management

Stage	Watering Needs
Young Trees	Irrigate every 7–10 days during dry periods
Mature Trees	Every 15–20 days before flowering and fruiting
Avoid	Waterlogging; drip irrigation recommended

🍃 4. Nutrition & Fertilization

Age of Tree	FYM/Compost	N (g)	P (g)	K (g)	Notes
1–3 years	10–20 kg	100	50	100	Apply in split doses
4–6 years	25–40 kg	250	125	250	Apply before flowering and monsoon
7+ years	50 kg	500	250	500	Foliar sprays of micronutrients helpful

✂️ 5. Pruning & Training

Prune young trees to develop a strong scaffold structure.
Remove dead, diseased, and overcrowded branches after harvest.
Maintain an open canopy for good air circulation and sunlight penetration.

🌼 6. Flowering & Fruit Set

Begins flowering around December to February (in subtropical zones).
Fruit set and retention can be improved with:
- Spraying NAA (20 ppm) at flowering
- Boron and Potassium foliar sprays

🥭 7. Harvesting & Yield

Feature	Detail
Maturity Time	5–6 years after planting
Harvest Season	July–September (late season)
Fruit Maturity	Red-purple blush, full shoulders
Average Yield	10–15 tons/ha (mature trees)
Harvest Method	Hand picking with stalk to avoid sap burn

🐛 8. Pest & Disease Management

Problem	Symptoms	Control Measures
Anthracnose	Black spots on leaves, fruits	Copper oxychloride, good air flow
Powdery mildew	White powdery growth	Sulfur sprays, neem oil
Fruit flies	Larval damage, early fruit drop	Traps, sanitation, cover sprays
Mealy bugs	Sticky secretion, leaf curl	Neem oil, dimethoate spray

✅ Advantages of Palmer Mango Cultivation
