Abstract:
The productivity of an orchard depends in part on how well it collects sunlight. One system that achieves the goal of accelerated planting density without inhibiting canopy light penetration is the „V” system. A trial was established in the spring of 2004, one-year-old scab-resistant apple cultivars grafted on dwarfing M.9 rootstock were planted in the SDE “Criuleni” in central Republic of Moldova. Apple trees of the cultivar Generos and Florina were trained different form of crown in two-oblic-position (“V” system).The higher value indices was obtained in the variant were trees was twooblic-position (“V” system).
