Young apple tree responses to crop load
Acta Horticulturae, 2018 Biennial bearing is a common and important issue facing apple growers that can result in losses in production of up to 30%, depending on cultivar. To study this issue, a collaborative project focusing on molecular, biochemical and whole tree physiological responses to variable crop loads was established between German research institutions and ...

Variable-rate mechanical crop adjustment for crop load balance in ‘Concord’ vineyards
2018 IoT Vertical and Topical Summit on Agriculture - Tuscany (IOT Tuscany), 2018 The purpose of this research was to illustrate the use of sensor-derived spatial data in generating management classifications and applying variable-rate vineyard mechanization to improve vine balance and fruit quality. In a commercial ‘Concord’ vineyard in Westfield, New York, data from proximal sensors were used to generate spatial maps of soil ...

Formation of flavonoids and chlorogenic acid in apples as affected by crop load
Scientia Horticulturae, 2001Abstract The effects of crop load on the concentrations of flavonoid and chlorogenic acid in skin and on quality characteristics of mature fruit has been studied. Three crop load levels of about 50, 100 and 200 fruits per tree (about 35, 60 and 100 t/ha), representing low, moderate and high loads, respectively, were established on ‘Jonagold’ apple ...

THE EFFECTS OF CROP LOAD ON ´SANGIOVESE´ GRAPEVINES
Acta Horticulturae, 2005A study to evaluate the effects of crop load on the qualitative and quantitative fruit production as well as vegetative performance of grapevines was performed. The research was conducted from 2000 to 2002 on 12-year-old 'Sangiovese' grapevines grafted onto '420A'. The vines were spur pruned, the foliage was vertically trained and planted to a 3.0 by 1.

Abstract This chapter covers peach tree physiology and the physiological importance of fruit thinning. Various methods that have been developed to thin peach trees and some of the factors affecting the efficacy of these practices are discussed. Specific topics covered are: fruit growth and development; quantification of crop load; modification ...

Acta Horticulturae, 2012
Three different tree forms with four different crop load were studied in peach 'Royal Glory'. Trees were grafted on peach seedling and planted as "sleeping eyes" in 2006. Planting spacing was 4 m between the rows and 2 m in the row (1250 trees/ha). The following tree forms were made: 1) 'Perpendicular Y' with two scaffolds orientated transversally to ...

Crop load and harvest maturity effects on consumer preferences for apricots
Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, 2014AbstractBACKGROUNDImproving apricot fruit quality delivered to consumers is key to ensuring a successful apricot industry. Previous studies have focused on effects of either soluble solids content (SSC) or fruit firmness on consumer preferences, and results have been equivocal. This study evaluated the effects of crop load and harvest maturity how they
