Abstract

The Department of Primary Industries and Regional Development (DPIRD) is investigating the potential of 2D multileader narrow orchard systems in Western Australia for three Australian bred apple cultivars (‘ANABP 01’, ‘ANABP 09’, ‘ANABP 14’). This pilot trial is a part of the five-year national ‘Narrow Orchard Systems for Future Climates’ project, funded through the Hort Innovation Frontiers program.
