ABSTRACT
Mango (Mangifera indica L.) is a tropical fruit plant that is favored by the community, market demand and public acceptance of mango consumption is increasing, so the propagation of mango plants needs to be further developed, one of which is grafting techniques. The advantages obtained from the grafting technique on mango seeds are that the plant has new superior characteristics, relatively short seed preparation, faster fertilization and reproduction, higher productivity compared to seed propagation, more uniform plant growth, control process pests and diseases more easily. This research aims to study the method of propagation of mango plants by grafting techniques and was conducted using survey and observation methods in Tulusrejo Village, Pekalongan District, East Lampung Regency, Lampung Province. The results of field observations showed that in terms of location, soil conditions, equipment owned, and skills possessed by farmers in Tulusrejo Village were appropriate and quite good in producing mango seed propagation by grafting technique. The steps of this mango grafting technique include seeding mango seeds for rootstock, transplanting rootstock seedlings to the field, selecting buds, implementing grafting, and maintaining seedlings.
