Abstract: Field experiment was conducted during 2015-16 at Fruit research station, Sangareddy to study the exogenous application effect of flower enhancing plant bio regulators and fruit set improving chemicals on flowering and yield of mango cv. Banganpalli. Trees applied with paclobutrazol and other plant bio regulators (NAA and SA) were significantly increased the percent flowering compares to control trees. Paclobutrazol alone and in combination with spermidine treatment has recorded significantly maximum number of fruits per tree and yield (13.97 % and 41.54 % over control) due to increase in fruit set and fruit retention. Among fruit set improving chemicals, CPPU has recorded maximum yield (11.85 % over control) due to increased fruit set. Among interactions, the combination of NAA and spermidine has increased yield up to 48.04 % over control due to prolonged flowering by NAA and increased fruit set by spermidine. Maximum benefit cost ratio of 8.69 was recorded with NAA along with spermidine.
