Field experiment was conducted for two years, at Pollibetta, Kodagu district, Karnataka. The treatments were the combination of three irrigation intervals (pot irrigation once in two, four and six weeks) and six stress mitigation practices (control, urea and KCI spray, Rallidhan spray, mulch alone, mulch + urea and KCI spray and mulch + Rallidhan spray). It was tested on two year old Arabica coffee cv. cauvery. Considering the plant water status, vegetative growth and establishment of young coffee plants it was concluded that application of mulch at the start of dry period (first week of December) and giving irrigation once in two weeks interval @ 14 litres per plant througout the dry period (December to April) was considered as the suitable irrigation and stress management practice to young Arabica coffee.
