ABSTRACT
Studies on the flowering parameters, fruit set, apple weight, nut weight, and kernel weight were carried out in cashewnut. Total number of flowers varied from 470.95 (H 303) to 650.84 (H 313). The fruit set percentage under natural conditions was found to be 12.06 to 22.42. sex ratio varied from 0.11 to 0.17and apple weight, nut weight, kernel weight and nut yield per tree were maximum in H 313.
Key words: Cashewnut, Kernel, Apple, Tree
