Influence of fruit number on fruit weight and yield of kiwifruit

Scientia Horticulturae, 1990
Abstract Kiwifruit crop loading relationships published for pergola-trained vines in Hawkes Bay are shown to hold over a wider climatic range, several seasons and for T-bar training systems. Absorption of solar radiation by the vertical foliage ‘walls’ on the T-bar would reduce differences in total energy absorption between T-bar and pergola systems ...

Decanter increases fruit juice yield

Filtration + Separation, 2018
When fruit producers were hit by extreme weather and late frosts, production was affected and yield dropped. However, high-efficiency decanter technology provided the reliability needed to help manufacturers maintain productivity and the high quality demanded by the market.

Tree yield and fruit minerals concentrations influence ‘Hass’ avocado fruit quality

Scientia Horticulturae, 2002
To investigate the variation in quality of 'Hass' avocado fruit within an orchard, fruit were harvested at commercial maturity from 15 'Hass' trees of similar appearance, growing in three adjacent rows on the same soil type, and receiving similar management.

The Effort to Make Algebra Yield Fruit

The Mathematics Teacher, 1909
There is a great searching of heart among the teachers of algebra. The idea is abroad that algebra is the barren fig tree. Our association has a committee at work revising the old or devising a new algebra syllabus. Only about a year ago the Central Association published the report of its committee on algebra in the secondary schools, which report ...

Fruit Yield Estimation Through Multispectral Imaging

2012
Recent advances in spectral imaging technology have enabled the development of models that estimate various crop parameters from spectral imagery data. The present research investigated the alternate bearing dynamics as well as the estimation of fruit yield in citrus crops using multispectral imaging technology. Canopy features of individual trees were

Cross-pollination improves ‘Orri’ mandarin fruit yield

Scientia Horticulturae, 2009
Abstract ‘Orri’, a selection of ‘Orha’ mandarin [Temple (Citrus temple hort. ex Y. Tanaka) × Dancy (Citrus tangerina hort. ex Tanaka)], is a new high-quality Israeli mandarin which, in the last decade, has become one of the leading varieties in Israel. ‘Orri’ has an excellent taste, the rind is deep orange in color and easily removed, and it contains

Fruit ripening mutants yield insights into ripening control

Current Opinion in Plant Biology, 2007
Fruit ripening is a developmental process that is exclusive to plants whereby mature seed-bearing organs undergo physiological and metabolic changes that promote seed dispersal. Molecular investigations into ripening control mechanisms have been aided by the recent cloning of tomato ripening genes that were previously known only through mutation ...

Drought in Deciduous Fruit Trees: Implications for Yield and Fruit Quality

2012
In many production areas of the world deciduous fruit trees require irrigation to maximize yield and optimize fruit quality. Drought could therefore have a negative impact on fruit production. This chapter addresses yield and fruit quality responses of deciduous fruits (DF) to drought.

Fruit Detection and Yield Prediction

Open orchards are seriously threatened by climate change, which might affect fruit production and put the livelihoods of orchard communities in jeopardy. This proposal investigates how, under this situation, combining technology for fruit recognition and yield prediction can improve community resilience.
