T/YNCXXH 001-2021
Basic Information
Scope
Main Technical Content: 1. Scope: This protocol covers the following technical aspects of big cherry cultivation: site selection, variety and rootstock selection, seedling selection and planting, soil and fertilizer management, pruning and shaping, flower and fruit management, pest and disease control, fruit harvesting and packaging. This protocol applies to the production and circulation of big cherries in Yinan County. 2. Site Selection 2.1 Suitable Environmental Conditions: The site selection requires being far from cities and more than 1,000m away from main highways. It should have a good ecological foundation, including the construction of shelterbelts and ecological public forests, to ensure that the cherry trees in the base can grow sustainably with high quality and yield. It is best to choose plots with good air circulation and high terrain or mountain slopes to avoid building orchards along rivers and ravines to reduce the damage of late frost. The water and air quality should meet the requirements of NY/T5010-2016. 2.2 Soil Conditions: The soil texture should be sandy loam or gravelly loam with a pH value of 5.5–7.5, a salt content of no more than 1g/kg, and an organic matter content of more than 15g/kg. The groundwater level should be below 1.0m. Anti-drought and drainage facilities should be complete, and soil improvement is needed for replanting on heavily cropped land. High and dry brown soil and brown soil with good irrigation conditions can also be used for orchard establishment, but seedlings of grafted rootstocks such as Cot and Landing should be selected for planting. 3. Variety and Rootstock Selection 3.1 Variety Selection: The variety should be selected based on its commercial value, yield, resistance to cracking fruit, and marketability. Special attention should be paid to maturity period, fruit size, flesh hardness and crispness, sweetness and acidity, color, and resistance to adverse conditions. Currently, suitable varieties inclu
