Mango is a very favorite fruit, it is divided in various tropical regions, is a typical tropical fruit, rich in nutrients, with the title of "king of fruit". However, because it is a tropical fruit, so there will be some high temperature damage problems, sunburn is one of them, sunburn mainly occurs on the bark of the fruit, causing cracking and falling. Seriously affected the output, so how to effectively prevent sunburn? Let's take a look at it.

1. Fertilization

The fruit tree can be properly fertilized to enhance the resistance of the tree. After the fruit is harvested, the fruit tree is pruned reasonably and the fertilizer is fully applied. Strengthen the fertility of the soil, promote the growth and development of the roots of fruit trees, so that the roots can stretch to deeper and longer places. It can not only prevent high temperature injury, but also effectively resist frost injury in winter.

2. Watering

In the hot weather, the orchard should be watered reasonably to improve the conditions of the orchard. When the summer is coming or before the hot weather comes, the fruit trees should be watered properly. Reducing the orchard temperature and increasing water can effectively enhance the transpiration of fruit trees. When the temperature is too high, the trees can be directly sprayed with water and the artificial cooling method can be used.

3. Pruning

Proper pruning of fruit trees, so that fruit trees can naturally shade the fruit, high-temperature season pruning is different from winter pruning. To take shading into account, overlong branches and leaves are a very good shading tool. Therefore, reasonable pruning of fruit trees and keeping the rationality of flowers and fruits can effectively shade the fruit and reduce sunburn disease.

4. Recommendation

Planting green grass or Compositae plants in the orchard can effectively improve the soil environment and strengthen the soil moisture conservation. And green grass can effectively reduce the internal temperature of the orchard and increase the relative humidity in the orchard air, which is very beneficial to the cooling of the fruit, and it is very easy, almost no cost. It can also reduce sunburn.

5. Bagging

According to the size and growth of the fruit, you can choose different fruit bags for bagging treatment. Fruit bags need to choose high-quality fruit bags that are light-proof and hydrophobic, preferably that can refract sunlight. Otherwise, it will not only not guarantee the fruit, but also have a great impact on the growth and development in the future. Bagging time should not be chosen in sunny days, should be carried out in cool weather, too high temperature in the bag will be counterproductive.

6. White painting

The whitening of the trunk of fruit trees is very important, whitening can not only effectively control the occurrence of diseases and insect pests, but also reduce the incidence of sunburn. You can use the whitening agent sold on the market mixed with quicklime water and other substances to whiten the tree trunk, there are also different ways of whitening, please see the previous article, because white does not absorb heat and reflection, can greatly reduce burns.

7. Sunshade net

Some shading devices can be made manually, for example, white cardboard can be used to make a sunshade with the height of the trunk, which can be placed around to protect the trunk from sunlight and reflect out. You can also set up a sunshade net at the top of the orchard to cover it when the sun is at its strongest, and then remove it when the sun gets smaller.

The above seven points are how to prevent and cure sunburn, which is something that all tropical fruits need to pay attention to, otherwise fruit trees will be seriously harmed if they are not careful. Therefore, we must do a good job in strengthening orchard management in order to increase output and enhance quality. This article is for reference only. I hope it will be helpful to you.
