| Summary: | In Nayarit, most of the avocado orchards are more than 20 years old and have not been pruned. This causes lighting problems due to the large size of the trees and the intercrossing of their cups. The above makes difficult the cultural works, as well as the phytosanitary control; In addition, the harvest becomes more expensive and becomes very risky for the harvester. The objective of the present investigation was to evaluate the effect of the progressive pruning of main branches, on the growth, yield and size of the fruit in avocado trees 'Hass' in Nayarit A progressive pruning of the main branches of the tree pruned all the primary branches of the South section of the crown of each tree and evaluated the effect of this pruning on the number and growth of shoots (diameter and length), as well as in the size and yield of the fruit. The emergence of shoots was presented only in the pruned branches and presented a vigorous growth that did not affect the yield. Progressive pruning increased the diameter of the fruit in the months of September and October. The yield was not affected by the progressive pruning. Progressive pruning did not reduce fruit production and could increase the number of large fruits. |
