Ingredients Buttermilk and salt are mixed and pour it in the trench surrounding the tree.
Details Of Innovation A circular trench is dug at a distance of one foot from the tree trunk at the time of flowering. Approximately 60-80 litres buttermilk and two kg of salt are mixed and poured into the trench surrounding the tree. After an hour or so when the buttermilk gets absorbed, fresh water is added to the trench. The practice is repeated after a week or so. This practice reduces dropping of flowers and improves quality of mango.
