Introduction: Healthy and disease free mango grafts are necessary for successful mango plantation. Raising healthy grafts is a tedious process involving production of root stocks as well as scions stick, grafting, hardening, etc. Due to the difficult management practices and skills, farmers prefer buying grafts from reliable nurseries, providing healthy seedlings, in required amounts and at reasonable cost . Irrigation system, finance, land, structures, labour, planting material, chemicals and fertilizers etc are some of the resources required for raising healthy nursery plants.

Resources Management: Information about nursery resource management at right time is important for the success of a nursery enterprise. Credit /Finance: Nursery production for horticultural plants is highly capital intensive including timely availability of finance for day to day activities in a nursery. Credit can be obtained from Government Agencies like National Horticultural Board, National Horticulture Mission, Nationalized Banks, Cooperatives banks etc.

Resource Management: Land: Mango nurseries can be successful venture in Mango growing areas. Mango Nurseries should be avoided in areas where infestation of mango pests like aphids and leaf hoppers are more dominant. Availability of sufficient space for all nursery activities enables proper management resources. Land must be laid out well into various sections and sections must be connected by pathways. Land can be purchased or leased. It is one of the costliest input in a nursery enterprises.

Resource Management: Planting Material: Planting material in mango includes stones for rootstock production and scion sticks from mother plants of desired varieties. Fresh, Bold, heavy weight, disease and pest free stones of local mango trees should be collected before monsoon and used for rootstock production. Mother plant block should be looked after well. Mother plants of various varieties in demand should be collected from authentic sources like Agricultural Universities. Healthy and pest free scion stick should be selected from mother plants for grafting.

Shade Net House in Mango Nursery Resource Management : Structures: Mango Nursery is raised in Shade net house or Poly tunnel. These structures efficiently other resources like irrigation. Shade Net House in Mango Nursery Farm Yard Manure (FYM): FYM is part of nursery media and a cheap source of nutrients. It improves physical condition of soil, water retention, aeration. Best quality FYM should be used for production of nursery plants.

Resource Management: Fertilizers: Irrigation: Water soluble as well as conventional fertilizers are used in nurseries as a source of plant growth nutrients. Fertilizers are applied by hand or through irrigation water. Water soluble fertilizers are also applied as foliar sprays for better absorption. Irrigation: Irrigation water is the most important resource in a nursery. It should have a good quality and abundantly available. In case of limited supply of water micro irrigation, subsurface irrigation systems must be used. Rain water harvesting can be effective in nurseries in case of limited water availability.

Resource Management: Plant Protection: Insecticide like Phorate 10 G is mixed in the media to prevent from termites. Mango stones treated with copper oxy-chloride to control seed borne diseases in nursery. Mango seedlings and grafts are infested by insects pests like mango stem borer, mango leaf hopper, etc. Regular spraying of Chloropyriphos (Radar) 2 ml and Carbendazim (Bavistin) 1 gm / 1 liter of water is essential. Timely application of control measures can control diseases and pests without adversely affecting growth of nursery plants.

Resource Management: Media: Trays and Containers: The media consists of Garden soil, well decomposed FYM and sand mixed in 2:1:1 proportions. Trays and Containers: Mango stones are either sown on raised beds or in poly bags. Mango stones sown on raised beds need to be transplanted into poly bags before grafting while those sown in poly bags need not be transplanted. Media filled Poly Bag

Skilled Labors Performing Grafting in Mango. Resource Management: Labor: Mango nursery requires skilled as well as unskilled labors to carry out various nursery operations. Skilled labor are required to perform operations like grafting, training, pruning, media preparations, care of mother plant etc Skilled Labors Performing Grafting in Mango. Unskilled labor performs activities like bed preparations, bag filling, sowing, spraying, etc.

Resource Management: Future Technology: Technological advancements like new propagation methods, safer chemicals, better management practices, etc need to be adopted to maximize production, quality and profits. The day to day operations in nursery become difficult to perform due to expensive labourers. Operations like bag filling, sowing, irrigation, climate control, spraying etc. can be mechanized.
