All Details
I am a next-generation, high-performance selection of the iconic Kesar mango, engineered for the modern grower who demands both the classic saffron flavor and superior commercial traits. I produce medium-to-large, attractive fruits with a smooth skin that transitions from a deep green to a bright, waxy golden-yellow. My flesh is a breathtaking intense saffron-orange, exceptionally firm, and 100% fiberless, delivering a concentrated honey-sweetness and that legendary "Kesar" perfume.
I am a refined "21st-century" selection of the Kesar lineage, specifically valued for my larger average fruit weight, improved pulp-to-stone ratio, and a more uniform ripening process.
I am a specialized selection from the fertile mango belts of Gujarat, India, developed to provide a more standardized and robust version of the traditional Gir Kesar.
I require deep, strategic irrigation during the fruit-set period, but I am drought-tolerant once established and need a dry winter to trigger my heavy blooming cycle.
I crave maximum sun exposure; at least 8 to 10 hours of direct sunlight is mandatory for me to synthesize the high sugars and deep pigments that define my variety.
I am a specialist of the heat, thriving in temperatures between 26°C and 43°C; I am perfectly adapted to the hot, dry, and windy conditions of Western and Central India.
I have a sturdy, semi-spreading growth habit and am highly recommended for High-Density Planting (HDP) in well-drained, loamy or medium-black soils.
I am a responsive feeder; I thrive on organic manure and oil cakes, but I also benefit from targeted micronutrient sprays (like Boron and Zinc) to ensure my fruits are perfectly formed.
My scientific name is Mangifera indica 'Kesar 2121' and I belong to the Anacardiaceae family.
My saffron pulp is safe and nutritious for pets, but my leaves and sap contain irritants; ensure the pit is disposed of safely to prevent choking.
My thick, evergreen canopy is a natural carbon sink, providing a cool microclimate and filtering dust particles from the air throughout the year.
I am a premier choice for the processing industry because my pulp retains its color and flavor exceptionally well; I am also rich in Vitamin A and protective antioxidants.
I am more resistant to "alternate bearing" than older selections, but I should be monitored for thrips during the flowering stage and protected from fruit flies.
I am a resilient and long-lived perennial tree, capable of providing elite, high-market-value harvests for 50 to 70 years.
