Training systems for sweet cherry

This dataset contains observational data collected over two seasons between 2019 and 2021. All data was collected in Jericho, Tasmania with analysis conducted at the University of Tasmania, Sandy Bay. Analysis of the data was conducted using various statistical software programs. The cherry tree training systems studied in this data set were the Upright Fruiting Offshoot (UFO), Bibaum (BB), Super Spindle Axe (SSA), Tall Spindle Axe (TSA) and Steep Leader (SL). The cherry industry is increasingly looking for are optimal use of light interception and space within an orchard particularly under protected cropping systems. This studied addressed the question of which training system is most suitable for a lateral bearing fruiting cultivar in a high density planting setting. Training system light interception, fruit quality, flowering and crop load analysis derived from this data.
