Project Summary: Reducing Variation in Apple Tree Yield
December 2021
This article summarises the results of a Rural Professionals Fund project that aimed to see if trees on different soil types on the same apple orchard blocks would benefit from a more targeted water and nutrient supply and reduce the difference in yield and fruit quality.
