Ertragssteigerung im Obstbau

Improving Orchard Yields
This book contains cultivation advice so that professionals, too, can improve the yield and quality of their fruit in an appropriate and eco-friendly manner. Fruit trees yield the most regular harvests when their growth is properly trained and an excessive fruit load is reduced by timely thinning - so that the fruit quality, too, leaves nothing to be desired.
Much of the cultivation advice is concerned with:
Good plant material, pruning, growth inhibitors and fertilising
The cause of unsatisfactory flowering and what to do about it
Fruit-setting problems
The possibilities/impacts of fruit thinning
