PodaCitrus - Optimisation of citrus pruning
This project consists of a set of pruning trials, with a view to reducing the alternation of production of some traditional and/or very important cultivars in Portuguese citrus fruit production. This project helps increase productivity of orchards and reduce skin defects in the fruit by modernising the pruning techniques and adapting them to each of these citrus cultivars.
