Fenología de cacao bajo árboles de sombra en Talamanca, Costa Rica

A study of the phenology of six cacao (Theobroma cacao) interclonal crosses under the shade of Erythrina poeppigiana, Gliricidia sepium or Inga edulis was carried out in Atlantic region of Costa Rica in 1992. Although shade patterns differed between shade species, only a few significant differences were detected in cacao flushing, flowering and production patterns. However, differences in shade levels seemed to affect the intensity of flushing, flowering and production.
