Precision crop load management part 2.
The Precision Crop Load management protocol, which was used by some growers in 2013, consisted of first defining the optimum fruit number/tree (target fruit number) and then pruning to reduce flower bud numbers to 1.5 times the target fruit number. Chemical thinning consists of applying sequential thinning sprays (with rates and timing guided by the carbohydrate balance model and the fruit growth rate model to assess thinning efficacy). The program was successful in guiding chemical thinning decisions in 2013.
