Test Your Knowledge on Fruit Tree Production and Orchards

Study Notes

Orchards can be commercial, family, experimental, didactic, or in family gardens.
Family orchards represent 70% of Romania's orchards.
Plantation systems and types are established based on species, variety, rootstock, and other criteria.
The best production results are given by intensive and super-intensive orchards.
Nurseries produce selected planting material for propagation.
Only recommended fruit material can be propagated in nurseries.
The State Institute for Varieties Testing and Registration monitors the propagation of fruit material.
A modern nursery has a rootstock production sector and a grafted branches production sector.
Rootstocks can be generative or vegetative.
Mother plantations produce grafts of valuable, virus-free varieties.

The production of grafted fruit trees involves various sectors and factors such as climate, soil, and labor.
Suitable areas for a nursery have an annual temperature of 2,500°C, 2,100 hours of sunshine, and over 400 mm of precipitation.
Land intended for the nursery must be flat or have a maximum slope of 3-4%, with loamy or loamy soil texture, well-structured, fertile, deep, well-ventilated, drained, and with irrigation possibilities.
The production of grafted trees involves various steps such as generative rootstock seedlings, vegetative rootstocks, marcots, and rooted cuttings.
Removal, placement, and dispatch of planting material involve manual or mechanical removal of trees, temporary or permanent stratification, and transportation.
Production of cuttings of fruit bushes involves harvesting annual branches, shaping cuttings, stratification, planting, and cultural works.
Production of strawberry stolons involves harvesting stolons, land maintenance, and plant care to ensure rooting and formation of rosettes.
The cultivation of fruit plants can be done on small or large areas, with careful land selection, cleaning, and improvement before planting.
Climate, relief, soil, and socio-economic factors are taken into account when choosing the location for an orchard.
For intensive and super-intensive orchards, soils with a medium and light texture, permeable, fertile, deep, well-drained with a slightly acidic to neutral reaction are recommended.

Farms require qualified labor during tree cutting and harvesting periods
Populated centers and canning factories are important factors to consider
The foreign market is also a consideration
Orchards require a permanent source of water for spraying and irrigation
Water is necessary to protect against diseases and pests
Labor must be qualified
Peaks of work occur during tree cutting and harvesting periods
Populated centers provide potential labor sources
Canning factories provide potential markets
Foreign markets are important for sales.
