ANA Chile® offers you valuable videos featuring the pruning guidelines of consultant Walter Masman.
Guidelines for the production pruning of Sweet Aryana® PA1UNIBO, with the clear goal of aligning the output of production centers with the recommended maximum yields for the age of these plants, aiming for quality fruit.
Training guidelines for Nimba pruning, with the goal of adjusting the output of production centers to the recommended maximum yields for the age of these plants.
Based on several years of Nimba evaluations, which show that there can be a significant loss in fruit quality due to softening associated with excess load, and considering its early production onset, for orchards planted in 2021 it is advisable to adjust the loads to a maximum production of 3,000-4,000 kg/ha, and for orchards planted in 2022, to a maximum of 1,000-1,500 kg/ha.
