A field trial was conducted at Experimental farm of the Division of Horticulture, ICAR Research Complex for North Eastern Hill Region, Umiam, Meghalaya, India during 2011-12 to study the effect of leaf and fruit thinning treatments like, T0 (Control), T1 (20: 1 LFR), T2(30: 1 LFR), T3(40: 1 LFR) and T4 (50: 1 LFR) on yield and quality of peach cv. Flordasun. The best quality fruit with respect to fruit size (45.21 x 44.76mm), weight (45.78g), TSS (13.160Brix), acidity (0.65%), total sugar (6.21%), ascorbic acid (52.61mg/100 g), total anthocyanins (4.69mg), total carotenoids (10.72mg), total minerals (1.42%) and total phenols (150.19mg) were obtained with a leaf to fruit ratio (LFR) of 30:1. However, all the treatments significantly reduced total yield except control. In order to obtain the quality fruits of peach cv. Flordasun, thinning of leaf and fruit in the ratio of 30:1 is recommended for peach growers of North eastern region. Not Available |
