Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book brings together insights and research on the irrigation needs of pear and apple trees. Sticking to a scientific methodology, the author examines the relationship between fruit growth and access to water in a variety of geographical and climatic conditions. A soil moisture record demonstrates the slow rate at which water is used in the central-coast region, as well as how fruit growth is unaffected by irrigation, unless the soil moisture is nearly depleted. Experiments in warmer climates show that growth slows when the moisture reaches the permanent wilting percentage, as it does between June and July. The author considers these findings against the wealth of research on the broader topic of fruit tree irrigation, rounding out the volume with an examination of the thematic depth and significance of these insights.
