Abstract

A trial on custard apple grafting was undertaken to determine the optimum time, method and environmental conditions for higher success percent of grafts. Grafting methods, i.e. cleft, side and veneer were performed at 15-day interval starting from 15th February to 15th March (15th February, 29 February and 15th March) under two environments, viz. polyhouse and nethouse. Higher success of grafts (82%) was recorded in polyhouse when veneer grafting done on 15th February in comparison to nethouse conditions (76%). Time and method of grafting also showed the significant effect on success percent of grafts
