Mangos constitute one of the crops which can be grown profitably in Puerto Rico. Mattern, Pennock and Valle have shown that excellent prices, ranging from 35jé to 65ff per pound, can be obtained throughout the mango season in the New York wholesale market where a large volume of trade in mangos can be accomodated without unduly depressing prices. A substantial market also exists in local supermarkets with reasonably high prices for high quality mangos as shown by Mattern and Pennock. Clean, anthracnose-free fruit can be produced on the south coast of Puerto Rico with little or no spraying. In competitive areas, such as the state of Florida, spraying is required as frequently as 20 times per year. Little or no information is available, however, with respect to the production and fruit size of high quality varieties of mangos grown under conditions of the south coast of Puerto Rico of the kinds that command good prices on the New York market. The present paper is intended to furnish such information. A mango varietal comparison experiment was set out in August 1960 on the Fortuna Agricultural Experiment Substation farm near Juana Díaz, P.R. for the purpose of determining which of the included varieties are best suited for commercial mango production in Puerto Rico. The productive capacity of these varieties is, of course, the primary concern of this experiment. Other commercially desirable attributes, however, such as large fruit size and consistency of bearing, also were investigated. Considerable data in parameters reflecting tree size and rate of growth was annotated because both characteristics are interrelated closely with the productive capacity of a variety. These tree measurements are being subjected to continued study. The matter of tree size and rate
