Title StatementThe response to topworking of unproductive old-bearing cashew trees
General NoteSan Marcelino, Zambalez: WLAC, 1985. 10p
Summary, Etc.Two separate test on the effect of three heights of stump (50, 100 and 150 cm) and three methods of topworking (bark, cleft and side grafting) were undertaken to determine the response of unproductive and old-bearing cashew trees. Tested trees responded very satisfactory to the stump heights in topworking. At 30 and 90 days after grafting, 100 cm high stump (Treatment 2) obtained the highest mean of 92.67 and 94%, respectively. There were no significant differences among treatment means. The quarterly rate of scion diameter of the 150 high stump (Treatment 3) gave the highest mean of 1.13 cm while Treatments 1 (50 cm high stump) and 2 had a mean of 1.08 and 1.06 cm, respectively. However, there was no significant difference among the three treatments. Treatment 1 was the cheapest and was more accessible to cutting and was easier to graft due to lower height of stumps. In another experiment, the trees responded well to the three methods of topworking at 30 days after grafting. Cleft grafting was most successful with a mean of 86.67%, followed by side grafting and bark grafting with 76.62 and 76%, respectively. At 90 days after grafting, cleft grafting was also highest at a mean of 98%, while the trees failed to survive with bark and side grafting. The rate of diameter per scion was recorded at 1.21 cm. Early flowering was observed five months after grafting. Continued flowering and fruiting was noted during the first and second year of the project
