Performance of WA 2 in industry evaluations

摘要

Washington State University's new apple variety WA 2 is in its fifth season of intensive industry evaluation (Phase 3). On four climatically different sites, 50 to 150 trees are planted 3 by 10 feet apart, usually on Mailing 9 337. Horticultural and storage performance are evaluated, while the remaining fruit is used for packing-line tests, industry sampling, and market testing.
