What is the irrigation requirement for litchi farming?

irrigation

If you use micro irrigation to irrigate your litchi garden you will get tremendous result. In small litchi plants regular irrigation should be done at the time of establishment. For which irrigation should be done at an interval of 5-6 days in winter and 3-4 days in summer. Water should not be given 3-5 months before flowering (November to February) in full grown plants of Teevi which have started bearing fruit. The fruit development starts rapidly from six weeks before the fruit ripening (beginning of April) in the teacups.

Therefore, in the plants which have started fruiting, proper management and irrigation is required at this time. Lack of water leads to fruit development and cracking of fruits. Therefore, proper water management leads to proper development of the pulp and the problem of fruit cracking is reduced. Finally, I can say you that you will get 25-40% more yield as compare to previous year crop of without drip system. You can provide soluble fertilizer with venturi system so that plant root can accept fertilizer compare to any other methods.
