MT of farmyard manure .
By the time the guava plant attains the age of three years and are about to
produce more flowers and fruits , the soil would have turned into highly productive
growing/ supporting medium with lot of soil microbes that produce aminoacids
that helps in better growth and yield of thaiwan guava .
Fertilizers –0. 460 kg nitrogen , 0.320 kg phosphorus and 0.3 kg potash per tree
is needed per year
For 666 plants – grown up trees ( 5 th year onwards )
Nitrogen – 666 *0.460 =306 kgs of nitrogen
Phosphorus – 666 *0.320 kgs =213 kgs
Potash – 666 * 0.300 kgs = 199.80 kgs
In terms of urea = 306 * 2.17 = 664 kgs urea
In terms of super phosphate = 213 kgs * 6.25= 1331 kgs
Interms of muriate of potash = 199.80 * 1.66 = 331.668
Urea = 664 kgs ( single tree – 1.0 kg )
SSP = 1331 kgs ( single tree – 2.0 kgs )
MOP = 332 kgs ( single tree – 0.50 kgs )
For the first year
Urea – 200 grams per plant
SSP – 400 grams per plant
MOP – 100 grams per plant
Second year
Urea – 200 grams per plant
SSP – 800 grams per plant
Mop – 200 grams per plant
Third year
Urea – 600 grams per plant
Super phosphate – 1200 grams per plant
MoP- 300 grams per plant
Fourth year
Urea – 800 grams per plant
Super phosphate – 1600 grams per plant
MOP – 400 grams per plant
Fifth year
Urea- 1000 grams per plant
Super phosphate – 2000 grams per plant
MOP – 500 grams per plant
Farmyard manure
First year – 10 kgs per plant
Second year – 20 kgs per plant
Thrid year onwards – 30 kgs of per plant
Fourth year – 40 kgs per plant
Fifth year – 50 kgs per plant
Foliar spray for better fruit quality
ZnSO4 -0.25% + FeSO4 -0.25% + MgSO4 0.25% + Borax 0.1%
Preharvest spray of calcium nitrate @ 1% - three srpays during the period of fruit
set to harvest
Bending – bending the upright branches produce more flowers . It convert
vegetative flushes into flower producing branches .
Fruiting – since current season branch bears flowers and fruits regular pruning
keep the thaiwan guava tree on continuous flowering …
Cost of cultivation
Seedlings cost – ( 666 plants * Rs.200 ) = Rs. 1,33,200
Land preparation and pit formation – Rs. 7000
Farmyard manure – 10 MT @ Rs.1000 per MT – Rs.10,000
Basal manure and fertilizers – Rs.12,000

Contingencies – Rs.2000
Total cost – Rs. 1,85,700
Drip irrigation system – Rs.40,000 per acre
Total cost – Rs.2,25,700
Second year cost
Farmyard manure+ fertilizers+ pruning + pest and disease management =
Rs.30,000
Thrid year cost = Rs.45,000
Fourth year cost – Rs. 55,000
Fifth year cost – Rs. 60,000
Income for guava harvest and sales
First year – nil
Second year yield – 4,000 kgs ( 4000 kgs *Rs. 50 = Rs. 2,00,000 )
Third year yield - 8000 kgs ( 8000 kgs * Rs.50 = Rs.4,00,000 )
Fourth year yield – 14 ,000 kgs ( 12000 kgs * rs.50 = 7,00,000 )
