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.
A recent study showed that key parameters such as total soluble solids, firmness, and acidity could be predicted with high accuracy, allowing the supply chain to optimize management and improve final quality.
The agreement extends the retailer's partnership with Marshall Farms through its supplier Scotty Brand. The manufacturer now supplies fruit for both its own-brand and Scotty Brand packages, increasing the volume by approximately three million cherries per season.
A recent study from central Chile reveals that the combined activity of honey bees and wild insects significantly improves sweet cherry fruit set, highlighting the value of biodiversity and ecologically oriented farming practices for more resilient orchards in the region.
