GROWTH ACTIVITY OF APPLE TREE ORCHARDS UNDER A HAIL-PROTECTIVE NET AT DIFFERENT SOIL MANAGEMENT SYSTEMS

An anti-hail net is an effective protection of fruit orchards from hail, sunburn and bird damage. The grid slightly changes the microclimate of plantations and, as a consequence, the activity of tree growth. The purpose of the study was to evaluate the growth activity of the intensive apple orchard...

GROWTH ACTIVITY OF APPLE TREE ORCHARDS UNDER A HAIL-PROTECTIVE NET AT DIFFERENT SOIL MANAGEMENT SYSTEMS
description An anti-hail net is an effective protection of fruit orchards from hail, sunburn and bird damage.
