Description
Summary:The study was carried out in the period 2007 – 2011 with the walnut cultivar Izvor 10 grafted on common walnut (J. regia L.) rootstock and the peach cultivar ‘Glohaven’ grafted on seedling peach rootstock. The aim of the experiment was to investigate the possibility of growing walnut interplanted with peach. Two variants were studied: I. Separate (compact) growing of walnut and II. Interplanting walnut with peach. The results obtained showed that walnut could be interplanted with peach. It was concluded that interplanting walnut with peach does not exert a negative effect on walnut yield and fruit weight but reduces the size of the peach fruits, as the plantation ages.
