1 New training systems to improve the profitability of cherry orchards Gérard Charlot, Ctifl (France)
2 New training systems : Why? Earlier full Bearing Reduce labour costs New varieties available New rootstocks available Protect the trees from rain and insects No universal training system COST cerise, Trebinje, G. Charlot 11/2/2015 2
3 Training system : choice of the varieties * Vegetative habit of the varieties * Vigour : medium (Regina), strong (Ferdiva) * Growth habit : upright, semi-spreading, spreading, willowy * Ramification o Intensity o Crotch angle * Axis and fruiting wall : select varieties with spreading habit with a good ramification and wide crotch angle (Regina, Rubin, Ferdiva, Ferdouce) avoid varieties with upright growth and poor ramification (Summit, Satin, Lapins, ) * to improve the ramification it may be possible to spray plant growth regulator like promalin (if this product is allowed) * Production * First fruit set * Full bearing o Level o Regularity COST cerise, Trebinje, G. Charlot 11/2/2015 3
4 Training system : choice of the rootstocks * Rootstock * Dwarfing : * Gisela 5 < Tabel < Piku 1 *Semi-dwarfing o Weiroot 158 < Gisela 6< Furtos = PHL-A< Maxma 14 = Krymsk 5 *Vigourous o SL 64 = Maxma 60= GF 8,1/Adara < Mazzard = Piku 3 Growth habit *Upright : Furtos, PHL-A *Spreading : Gisela 6, Gisela 12, Weiroot 158 Soil Fertility Calcareous : very sensitive : Tabel Waterlogging : very sensitive : SL 64, Weiroot 158 Water stress COST cerise, Trebinje, G. Charlot 11/2/2015 4
5 Training system and protection from rain and insects Fully protected orchard Row-by-row protection from rain and insects 5
6 Training system : axis Axis : Balrine*/ Piku 1*, 3 rd leaf 4 m x 1.5 m (1666 trees/ ha) Axis : Balrine*/ Tabel *, 9 th leaf 4 m x 1.5 m (1666 trees/ ha) COST cerise, Trebinje, G. Charlot 11/2/2015 6
7 Training system : bi-axis Bi-axis not well-balanced, Bellise-Gisela 6, 18 april 2 nd leaf-13 Most vigourous one : put it with an angle Less vigourous one : put it vertically Bi-axis well-balanced, Bellise-Gisela 6, 18 april 2 nd leaf-13 COST cerise, Trebinje, G. Charlot 11/2/2015 7
8 Training system : palmette Balrine*/ Gisela 6*, early 4 th leaf Early Red*/ Gisela 6*, early 4 th leaf Rosie*/ Maxma 14* : end of 5 th leaf Distances : 4,5 m x 3 m Height : 2,70 m 8
9 Training system : palmette Early Red*/ Gisela 6*, early 4 th leaf Rosie*/ Maxma 14*, early 6 th leaf Babelle*/ Gisela 6*, earlyt 4 th leaf Burlat/ Gisela 6*, early 4 e leaf 9
10 Training system : palmette Rainier/ Gisela 6*, early 6 th leaf Summit/ PHL-A*, early 4 th leaf COST cerise, Trebinje, G. Charlot 11/2/
11 Fruiting wall Regina/ Tabel, harvest from the ground (without a ladder) Regina/ Maxma 14 in axis : 2.50 m within the row, height : m harvest with a picking platform COST cerise, Trebinje, G. Charlot 11/2/
12 Fruiting wall: trials in progress La Tapy 2005 Variety : Folfer* Rootstocks : Tabel, Maxma 14* Ctifl 2009 Varieties : Bellise, Folfer* Rootstock : Gisela 6* Ctifl 2011 Varieties : Bellise, Folfer Rootstocks : Gisela 6*, Weiroot 158* La Tapy 2013 Variety : Regina Rootstock : Gisela 6* COST cerise, Trebinje, G. Charlot 11/2/
13 Fruiting wall Choice of the varieties Very productive varieties Good ramification and spreading to willowy growth habit Good results with : Bellise, Ferdouce*, Folfer*, Hedelfingen, Regina, Rubin, Staccato * Medium results : Belge-Ferrovia, Kordia Bad results : Fertard* Choice of the rootstocks Productive and very productive Dependant on soil fertility Vigour of the variety Shape of the trees (axis, biaxis, palmette) Good results: Tabel with fertile soils, Maxma 14 with medium soil, Gisela 6* depends on soil, climate and variety. COST cerise, Trebinje, G. Charlot 11/2/
14 Two errors to avoid : not enough or too much vigour Not enough vigour No pruning during growth Pruning in winter Too much vigour Mechanical pruning during growth just before harvest Manual pruning to allow the light go through the hedge Notching on trunk during flowering Cutting the roots, only one side of the row the same year Paclobutrazol if allowed COST cerise, Trebinje, G. Charlot 11/2/
15 KGB system Ctifl Balandran (Nîmes) Varieties : Grace Star, Belge, Ferdiva Rootstocks : Maxma 14, Krysmk 5, Krymsk Varieties : Folfer, Ferdiva, Regina Rootstocks : Piku 1, Weiroot 158, Furtos, Maxma 14, Maxma 60, SL Variety : Burlat Rootstocks : Piku 1, Weiroot 158, Furtos, Maxma 14, Maxma 60, SL 64 La Tapy (Carpentras) 2012 Six different training systems (including KGB with Regina on Maxma 60) COST cerise, Trebinje, G. Charlot 11/2/
16 KGB system Grace Star/ MM14 : 1 st leaf, 12 July, 2 months after pruning the limbs at cm Grace Star/ MM14 : early 3 rd leaf, Full bearing expected in 2015 (5 th leaf) or 2016 (6 th leaf) COST cerise, Trebinje, G. Charlot 11/2/
17 KGB system Belge/ Maxma 14 : full bloom early 4 th leaf Grace Star/ MM 14, Krymsk 5 and 7 : August 4 th leaf after pruning uprights at 2,7 m COST cerise, Trebinje, G. Charlot 11/2/
18 KGB system Choice of the variety Productive (it s less important than for fruiting wall) but able to produce on uprights Upright and semi-spreading habit and few or average ramification For example : Sabrina, Folfer, Satin, Summit, Lapins, Sweetheart, Staccato Varieties with semi-spreading, spreading habit with good ramification : Ferdouce, Ferdiva, Regina, Rubin : these varieties will need more labour (removing laterals) and some difficulties to obtain enough uprights COST cerise, Trebinje, G. Charlot 11/2/
19 KGB system Choice of the rootstocks Depend on varieties and soil fertility Dwarfing : Piku 1 Semi-vigorous, vigourous - Weiroot 158, Gisela 6, Gisela 12, PHL-A, Furtos, Maxma 14, Maxma 60, SL 64?, GF 8,1-Adara?, Monrepos? Planting distances Dwarfing : 3.5 m x 2 m Semi-dwarfing : 3.5 m to 4 m x 2 m Vigorous : 4 m x 2 m to 2.5 m COST cerise, Trebinje, G. Charlot 11/2/
20 KGB system Important points to note To control vigour and uprights growth - Pruning the first 2 years : No less than 3 prunings the 1 st and 2 nd leaf - 1 st leaf : (prune the trees at 60 cm from the ground) - first pruning : in may-june - 2 nd leaf : - second pruning : in winter - third pruning: in may-june It s important to obtain at least 25 uprights, more if the rootstock is vigourous. Don t hesitate to remove the most vigourous uprights -Choose the right density COST cerise, Trebinje, G. Charlot 11/2/
21 The UFO system Upright fruiting offshoot Trial in progress at Balandran Objectives : - faisability with Maxma 14, the most common rootstock used in France - study varieties with different vegetative characteristics (vigour, growth habit, ramification, ) Year of planting : 2014 Rootstock : Maxma 14 Varieties Early : Burlat Mid-Early : Early Star, Folfer, Ferdouce Mid-Season : Samba, Satin, Summit, Van, Rainier Mid-late : Kordia, Belge, Lapins Late : Skeena, Rubin, Ferdiva, Regina Distances : 3.5 m x 2 m (1428 trees/ha) Angle 30 from soil Uprights every cm COST cerise, Trebinje, G. Charlot 11/2/
22 The UFO system UFO : Samba */ Maxma 14*, early 1 st leaf UFO : Lapins/ Maxma 14*, early 1 st leaf COST cerise, Trebinje, G. Charlot 11/2/
23 Lapins/ Maxma 14 : 22 july, 1 st leaf Cherry varieties and rootstocks information on the Ctifl web site After registration, free access COST cerise, Trebinje, G. Charlot 11/2/
24 Projects : survey on training system trials carried out by the COST cherry partners Objectives : knowledge of the trials in progress or recently finished, be able to use the results of these trials, contact concerned people Create a database The way to achieve this : choice of the best way to collect the informations - Excel - Software R - Software Sphinx - Software Agrosyst - Other softwares 2016 : training course at Ctifl Balandran in February Subject : training systems and rootstocks COST cerise, Trebinje, G.
