There are three types of Prunning seasons in the case of pomegranate. Farmers take the Bahar treatment depending on variety, climate, water availability and market requirement. Ambe Bahar (flowering in Jan – Feb), Mrig Bahar (flowering in June-July) and Hasta Bahar (flowering in August-September)

Plants may continue to bear blooms and small crops irregularly at different times of the year under such conditions, which may not be commercially viable.

Ambe Bahar fetches higher market value because the attack of pests and diseases in this Bahar is comparatively less than other. The availability of water at the time of the fruiting season is important.

The usage of heavy nitrogenous fertilizer in the initial stage promotes vegetative growth instead of a flower. Foliar fertilisation is the fastest and most effective method to supplement and enrich plant nutrition and correct nutritional deficiencies.
