Optimization Of The Area Of Nutrition Gardening As A Factor Of Intensification Of Fruit Vegetation
Abstract
The article presents the results of a study on the effect of the layout of different varieties of apple trees, grafted on a slightly grown apple rootstock M9. The work was carried out in the period 2014–2017. In the course of the work, the most optimal conditions were established for the development of the varieties under investigation and obtaining the best yield of two varieties of apples. It was experimentally established that in the juvenile period of development the scheme of allocation for the development of young trees does not have a significant effect. Beginning at the age of 5–6, the effect of this factor is manifested significantly in the thickening of the tree crown. During this period, in order to maintain the stable volume of the crown and the level of illumination, it is necessary for the crown of trees to thin the shoots, combining this with a moderate shortening of large branches. In conclusion, it is concluded that in order to increase yields, Starkrimson apple tree should be placed according to the scheme — 4×1 m, and the Golden Delicious — 4.0 × 1.5 m.
