Pomegranate Fertilizer Calculator

Per-tree pomegranate fertilizer planner — age-based doses up to 600:250:250 g N-P₂O₅-K₂O per tree/year converted into urea, DAP and MOP for your whole orchard.

Feed at bahar initiation after the rest period, with the dose split over the 2–3 months of fruit development. Even moisture plus calcium/boron side-sprays are the fruit-cracking insurance.

Indicative planning figures based on published research averages. Local soil tests, varieties and weather change actual requirements — confirm with your agronomist or extension officer.

Orchardists use the free Pomegranate Fertilizer Calculator to turn the per-tree recommendation into total urea, DAP and MOP for the whole block — young and bearing trees included — without a single hand calculation.

About Pomegranate Fertilizer Calculator

Pomegranate in the Deccan export belt is managed bahar-by-bahar: nutrition is loaded at flowering initiation, and the calcium–boron detail work is what keeps premium fruit from cracking. The calculator uses the age-laddered recommendation — 250:125:125 g N-P₂O₅-K₂O per tree/year (young (1–3 years)); 600:250:250 g N-P₂O₅-K₂O per tree/year (bearing) — multiplies it across your tree count, and converts the totals into urea (46% N), DAP (18-46-0) and MOP (0-0-60) quantities for the season.

Frequently asked questions

How much fertilizer does a pomegranate tree need per year?+

Young (1–3 years): 250 g N, 125 g P₂O₅ and 125 g K₂O per tree per year; Bearing: 600 g N, 250 g P₂O₅ and 250 g K₂O per tree per year. Feed at bahar initiation after the rest period, with the dose split over the 2–3 months of fruit development.

How do I stop pomegranate fruit cracking?+

Keep soil moisture even through fruit development (drip helps), and supplement calcium and 0.1–0.2% boron during fruit growth — cracking is a Ca/B-plus-moisture-swing disorder, not a variety flaw alone.

Which bahar should I take in pomegranate?+

Most commercial Deccan orchards take ambe or mrig bahar based on water availability and market timing; whichever you choose, the full fertilizer program loads at that bahar's flower initiation.

How do I convert the per-tree dose into urea, DAP and MOP?+

The tool multiplies the per-tree grams across your count, then sizes DAP to cover P₂O₅ (crediting its 18% N), urea for the remaining N, and MOP for K₂O — the same arithmetic an agronomist would do by hand.

Is this calculator free and private?+

Yes — free, no sign-up, and everything runs in your browser, so your orchard data never leaves the device and the tool works offline.
