QUOTE
Last monsoon I experimented making my own mango grafts for the first time
with stone grafting method which is similar to the ones used in ela farm at
old goa (govt farm). I got 70 % success rate.
The varieties i grafted are :
* Mancurad
* Xavier
* St. Anthony
* Bishop
* Mangilar
* Malges (big varity)
My main aim was to save the rare varieties because people go only for
mancurad as it has more commercial value. I will be keeping some grafts
for me and want to sell the remaining. I intend to grafts more mango
grafts for commercial purpose this monsoon. The number remain uncertain as
it depends on this years demand.
