Abstract:
The present investigation entitled “Effect of ethrel on the ripening behaviour of mango (Mangifera indica L.) Variety Dasheri.” was executed in fruit science laboratory under Pt. K. L. S. College of Horticulture and Research Station, Rajnandgaon (C.G.) during the year 2021-2022. The Completely Randomized Design (CRD) was used for the experiment which included total 5 treatments viz., T0: Control (untreated), T1: @ 250ppm ethrel dip treatment, T2: @ 500ppm ethrel dip treatment, T3: @ 750ppm ethrel dip treatment, T4: @ 1000ppm ethrel dip treatment and replicated 4 times. The results revealed that treatment T4 (ethrel @ 1000ppm) was found best for physico-morphological and chemical parameters, while for the organoleptic evaluation treatment T3 (ethrel @ 750ppm) was found best.
