Abstract: The present investigation entitled “Effect of different levels of pruning on yield of pomegranate (Punica granatum L.) cv. Super Bhagwa†was conducted on a well-established pomegranate orchard of five years age, spaced at 2.5 x 3 m at post- Gangapur, Taluka and District- Latur during 2017-2018. The experiment was laid out in a Randomized Block Design with 07 treatments viz., T1 (10 cm pruning), T2 (20 cm pruning), T3 (10 cm pruning), T4 (40 cm pruning), T5 (50 cm pruning), T6 (5 cm shoot tip pruning) and T7 (control) with three replications. The framed experiment was concentrated to find out optimum level of pruning for getting high yield of pomegranate. The observations on yield of pomegranate were recorded. The maximum fruit weight (276.12 g) was noted under the treatment T5 (50 cm pruning). The treatment T7 (control) recorded significantly maximum number of fruits per tree (84.29). The maximum fruit yield per tree (17.50 kg), marketable yield per tree (15.83 kg) and yield per hectare (211.01 q), were noted under the treatment T2 (20 cm pruning).
