The Bottom line… 9.4 more tones per acre Or, 752 more boxes per acre @ $12.00 per box (#1’s and #2’s) = $9,024 increase Or, $1.88 per plant increase

Summary Fall fumigation did not reduce disease incidence and had no effect on fruit yield. Fumigation should have been done in the spring. ‘Maxifort’ rootstock increased yield across at all levels of plant spacing and fumigation. Fruit size and number Similar per acre yields were seen with half the number of grafted plants. Increased spacing and ‘Maxifort’ slowed early season production. Per plant yield was increased by 4-10 lbs/plant with ‘Maxifort.
