FLOW CHART

SOURCES OF FRUIT BEARING TREES

MANGOES
MANGOES PAPAYAS

Our country is famous for its delicious
mangoes. Although there are other varieties,
the carabao mango is the most sought after and
exported in other countries.
Mango fruits are of these varieties:
1. Carabao or super mango. This variety is
the favourite of most people around the
world with its perfect blend of sweet
and sour taste, soft, succulent with a
pleasant odor.
2. Pico. This is a smaller in size from the
carabao variety but just as sweet, even
when it’s not yet ripe.
3. Indian mango. This originated from
India. It bears plenty of fruits the whole
year round. It is a favourite appetizer by
most teeners.
Mango tree comes from seed.
Papaya is a fruit rich in Vitamins A, B and C and
aids in the digestion of food. A good and tasty
dessert, especially when sweet, papaya is an
acceptable appetizer or dessert of people of all
ages. The unripe fruits are also valuable for
some main dishes as tinola and ginataan.
Because of it’s papain, a protein-spitting
enzyme obtained from the juice of unripe
papaya, helps tenderize meat and used as an
aid in digestion.
Most homeyards grow papaya trees.
They are planted by direct seeding, that is,
planting papaya seeds in a hole and cover with
¼ inch of soil. After planting, in 10 to 15 days,
seeds will germinate.
There is the so-called male and female
papaya. The male plant, only produce flowers
but do not bear fruit. However, it is necessary
for pollination. When planting, allow one male
plant to grow for every 15 to 20 female
papayas. Intercropping is a method where
papaya can be grown together with
coconuts, coffee, pineapple or bananas. It
increases farm income and prevent the
growth of weeds and/or grasses.

Sources of fruit-bearing trees
Fruit-bearing trees are available and sold in
different stages of growth and ready to be
transplanted. Among their sources are:
 Commercial Nursery – Run by
private individuals usually offering
landscaping materials and services.
 Agricultural Institution – A school
that offers a course related to
agriculture and other plant studies.
 Department of Agriculture –
Responsible for any agricultural
activities in terms of vegetables
and fruits .
 Bureau of Plant Industry – They
develop scientific improvement
for each plant specie in a locality
and adjacent places.
Dalandan Farm, Bayombong, Nueva
Viscaya, Philippines
Dalandan or kahel
originated from China. This fruit is
flattened and turns yellow or reddish
orange when mature. It consists of 10-
14 segments easily separated from one
another to form an open core.
Durian Fruit, Davao City, Philippines
The Durian fruit is popular due to
its strong aroma and unique taste. It is also
grown in Thailand and and Indonesia. Many
often says. “ It smells like hell, but it tastes
like heaven”. The flesh is rich in
carbohydrate, proteins, vitamins ( thiamine,
riboflavin and Vitamins A and C), and
minerals (calcium, phosphorous, potassium
and iron). The flesh is eaten fresh or
processed into jams, marmalade, spread,
pastillas, or flavouring for ice cream,
candies, cakes and rolls.
SOURCES OF FRUIT BEARING TREES
1.Fruit-bearing trees propagated by the sexual method (use of seeds):

2.Some are propagated asexually or by artificial methods

Avocado (grafting)
Banana ( rhizomes)
Star apple (marcotting)
Chico ( marcotting or inarching)
Guyabano (grafting)
Guava (marcotting)
Langka (marcotting)
Duhat (marcotting

Pineapple (suckers)
Mango (grafting)

Taking Care of Fruit Tree Seedlings
Here are some ways to keep plants healthy:
 Water the plants twice a day.
 Do this in the early morning and in the late afternoon.
Apply fertilizer in the soil. Use organic

 Cultivate the soil around the plants to allow the roots to breathe.

 Exterminate pests or insects.

The following are recommended for best results:

a. Water the plants.

b. Mix powdered chili or juice of the leaves of the neem tree with water. Keep this overnight.
Use the mixture for watering
c. Fumigate the tree or plant using charcoal and dried leaves.

d. Remove insects and pests using hands or tweezers.

 Pull the grasses or weeds surrounding the plants because they compete for the nutrients
which are intended for the plants.

 Remove dried leaves and cut carefully the dried or infected branches.

Monitor the growth of plants.

LAYOUT DESIGN FOR AN ORCHARD GARDEN

Good site preparation and layout are extremely important in successfully establishing fruit plantings.
Eliminating potential problems before planting will reduce money and effort needed in later
management practices for this long-term investment.
Layout Systems in Orchard Planting
After preparing the site and determining the size of the orchard, you must next decide on a planor
arrangement for the orchard.
The plan showing the arrangement of plants in an orchard is known as the “orchard layout”. There are several
systems of planting, these are the following:

The plan showing the arrangement of plants in an orchard is known as the “orchard layout”. There are
several systems of planting, these are the following

1.Square Method- this is the simplest and easiest method. Trees are planted in a square-shaped
position,with some distance measurement.

2.Rectangular Method- this method are formed from four adjacent trees that are in rectangular
shape.trees are planted in the same wayas in square method except the distance between the rows
of trees are more than the distance of the columns.

3.Quincunx or diagonal method-in this method trees are planted in the same way as in square
method except for the addition of a tree in the center of each square called a filler crop. Trees with
shorter life are placed in the middle so by the time the main trees or main crop grown into full size the
central trees will finished their life cycle.

4.Equilateral Triangle or hexagonal method- in this method trees are planted at the corner of the
equilateral triangle,where six triangle are joined forming a hexagon shape with a seventh tree in the
center. Distance between trees and from the central are equal.

5.Contour or terracing method- in this method planting is done in a hilly areas by connecting all
points of the same elevation across the slope from a base line, maintaining a space of each row.

Key Points

# An orchard is a piece of land where trees are maintained for commercial production.
#Proper planning and layouting of an orchard is very important to ensure proper growth of trees.
#Layout of orchard must be studied and selected according to the type of land area.
