Factores edafoclímátícos y productividad de tres variedades de mango (Mangiferaindica L) en Veracruz, México.

Various edaphoclimatic factors influence mango productivity (dendrometry, flowering and fruiting). The objective of the study was to analyze the edaphoclimatic factors that influence the productivity of 3 mango varieties (Keitt, Ataúlfo and Manila) in the Papaloapan Basin in Veracruz, Mexico. Dendrometric measurements were carried out on trees of 3 mango varieties in 15 orchards (n = 5 orchards per variety) and the values of 33 edaphoclimatic variables were acquired using geographic information systems; a comparison analysis was carried out with the dendrometric and edaphoclimatic variables. The Manila variety stood out in dendrometric terms as a response to ideal edaphoclimatic conditions for its physiological development. However, the 3 varieties are developed under unique edaphoclimatic values to which they are already adapted, with Keitt and Manila having the highest productivity. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
