| Summary: | Fruit yield quality and quantity are effectively enhanced if healthy vegetative conditions are ensured. These optimal conditions — i.e. the balance between shoot development and yield — can be achieved by the rationalization of the production technologies, such as:
• reduction of the size of the crown
• adaptation of the severity and method of pruning to the conditions of the actual year
• removal of the shoot tips
• timely fruit thinning
By establishing an improved level of plant nutrient uptake, this will ensure a healthy balance between shoot growth and yield. |
