Research finds organic fertilizers improved fruit quality parameters in mangoes, suggesting sustainable nutrient management strategies.

This study aims to evaluate the effects of organic fertilizers on mango fruit quality during different maturity stages.
Utilized a 3 × 3 factorial design with compost and biol applications
Applied compost at 0, 5, and 15 t/ha and biol at 0, 5, and 10%
Included a chemically fertilized control
Significant interactions between compost and biol were observed
At physiological maturity, treatments improved pulp color, soluble solids, acidity, and dry matter
At commercial maturity, treatments enhanced fruit firmness and pulp pH while reducing acidity

Morocho-Romero et al. (2026) studied this question.
