Formarea şi garnisirea coroanelor cu formaţiuni de rod în plantaţia de măr fondată cu pomi de tipul „KNIP-BAUM”

Abstract

The orchard was established in spring, 2004 with crowned apple trees of “KNIP-BAUM” type. The distance of plantation is 3.25 x 1.25 m, the rootstock is M 9 and the studied varieties are Idared, Golden delicious Reinders, Ionagold Decosta and Szampion. It was also established that in the second year after plantation these varieties have formed a tree skeleton totalized length of 10.72-17.20 m/tree. The quantity of bud-fruit formations for one tree is 72-103 pieces, for a linear meter of two-year-old branches is 19.2-32.4 piece, and for three-year-old branches is 12.8-19.8 pieces. This quantity of bud-fruit formation and annual branches will permit to obtain a crop of 25- 30 t/ha in the third year after plantation.
