High-Density Planting Systems And Rootstocks For Sweet Cherries In The Northeast
Introduction Dwarfing cherry rootstocks have allowed new possibilities for developing high-density sweet cherry (Prunus aviumL.) orchards with smaller trees that are more precocious and productive and can either be covered with rain exclusion shelters or high tunnels to prevent rain…
Fruiting Wall Production Systems For Apricots And Nectarines
Year 4 (2018) of a Six-Year Duration Project (2015-2020): The overall objective of this project is to develop, refine, and evaluate two complementary orchard technologies, fruiting wall canopy architectures for stone fruit production and high tunnel protective covering structures, to…

IFTA 2017 Report Of Pear Activities
1.The 2013 pear training/rootstock/spacing trial The 2013 pear training/rootstock/spacing trial completed its 5th season. Cooperator sites include OR (T. Einhorn), CA (R. Elkins), and NY (T. Robinson). The experiment is a factorial design to evaluate (1) rootstock- OH×F87, OH×F69 and Pyrodwarf 233,…
Budagovsky, Geneva, Pillnitz, And Malling Apple Rootstocks Affect ‘Honeycrisp’ Performance Over The First Six Years Of The 2010 NC-140 Honeycrisp Apple Rootstock Trial
One of the most critical elements of any apple orchard is the rootstock, particularly in high-density systems where the economic risks and potential returns are the highest. For more than 40 years, the NC-140 Multi-State Research Project has involved researchers…

Budagovsky, Geneva, Pillnitz, and Malling Apple Rootstocks Affect ‘FUJI’ Performance over the first six years of the 2010 NC-140 FUJI Apple Rootstock Trial
The 40-year-old NC-140 Multi-State Research Project is comprised of researchers from 29 U.S. states, three Canadian provinces, Mexico, and Chile. It evaluates fruit-tree performance on different rootstocks, with the principle goal of helping orchardists optimize their orchard system through rootstock selection. NC-140…
