Experts advise: Apple should delay trimming to protect the tree

This year, the overall status of China's apple production has been relatively stable in the Bohai Bay region, including Shandong, Liaoning, Hebei, and Beijing. The snowfall during the cooling period was similar to previous years, marking it as a normal season with no major disasters reported. However, the Loess Plateau region is still experiencing some negative effects. Professor Han Mingyu, an expert in the modern apple industry technology system, has provided key recommendations for farmers to mitigate potential damage. Farmers are advised to clear snow between branches and tree trunks promptly. This helps prevent sudden temperature fluctuations and ice melting, which could lead to trunk freezing and worsen rot diseases. After pruning during low temperatures, it’s important to minimize wounds and apply cut-off oil to protect them. If rot disease occurs, especially in spring and fall, farmers should use fungicides such as 3% thiophanate-methyl, ganconazole, gulex, rot rick, or schnail. It's also crucial to monitor frozen or dead shoots after germination to prevent outbreaks of rot disease. Monitoring temperature changes is essential. If temperatures drop below -20°C, trees may suffer from freezing damage. Farmers can wrap trunks and main branches with waste cotton, cloth, straw, or grass, and secure them tightly using old agricultural film or woven bags. For young trees, applying plant transpiration inhibitors can help reduce water loss during winter. For apple trees with damaged flower buds, spraying Tianda 2116 or Brassinostatin 481 foliar fertilizers before and after flowering can improve fruit set and yield. Bee pollination and manual pollination techniques are also recommended to boost fruiting rates. The government is encouraged to clear local roads quickly to ensure smooth transportation of fresh apples. Farmers are advised not to hold back sales or raise prices unnecessarily during the Spring Festival. Additionally, those who haven’t sold their fruit should regularly inspect their stock. Any fruits affected by cold injury must be handled immediately to avoid further losses. Taking these steps will help protect both the quality and value of the harvest.
