Abstract

An experiment was on five-year-old Kinnow trees, planted at a spacing of 6 m * 6 during the year 2008-10. Plants receiving uniform management practices were selected during September and classified into five different trunk cross-sectional area groups. The canopy volume, leaf area, yield and production efficiency increased gradually with the increase in trunk cross-sectional area. The maximum canopy volume (10.34 m3) was recorded at the highest trunk cross-sectional area (97.45 cm2). A positive and significant correlation was observed between TCSA and fruit yield (+0.953) and TSS (+0.872).
