  • Applewood Focused on Apple Varieties
    - Advertisement - Applewood focused on apple varieties August 21, 2019 Applewood Fresh Growers LLC is distinguishing itself with planning for the “next best managed varieties,” according to Nick Mascari, Applewood’s president. The Michigan grower-packer-shipper is testing apple varieties in the ground as part of the work toward serving the trade with the best of oncoming special new apple varieties. “We are really looking at making a statement with managed varieties and higher-end apples.” Mascari said that, for competitive reasons, “I can’t be specific” on what is being tested, but “we have five potential new varieties in test blocks.” If those are not ready for production now, “they will be further out. We are on the forefront for new sport varieties, and new strains of old varieties, atop having new managed varieties.” Antonia Mascari was recently promoted to become 1 / 3 the vice president of marketing for Applewood Fresh Growers LLC.With this, Applewood’s sales and marketing arm is “using more data to guide growers and customers” toward the best of the apples that will be coming from Michigan. By tracking data from all growing regions on apple sales for 52 weeks a year, growers can have the best information for planning the timing of new plantings and “we can help guide our customers to have the right assortment at the right times in their stores.” Mascari said USDA statistical data shows “We are the second largest grower-shipper in Michigan. Period. Our growth in volume is due to our team. We are pleased to be the leading sales company in Michigan.” “Our quality and volume will be up this year,” he continued.

  • Apples Catalogue 2019
    ADAMS PEARMAIN Herefordshire, England 1862 Oct 15 Nov Mar 14 Adams Pearmain is a an old-fashioned late dessert apple, one of the most popular varieties in Victorian England. It has an attractive 'pearmain' shape. This is a fairly dry apple - which is perhaps not regarded as a desirable attribute today. In spite of this it is actually a very enjoyable apple, with a rich aromatic flavour which in apple terms is usually described as Although it had 'shelf appeal' for the Victorian housewife, its autumnal colouring is probably too subdued to compete with the bright young things of the modern supermarket shelves. Perhaps this is part of its appeal; it recalls a bygone era where subtlety of flavour was appreciated - a lovely apple to savour in front of an open fire on a cold winter's day. Tree hardy. Does will in all soils, even clay. AERLIE RED FLESH (Hidden Rose, Mountain Rose) California 1930’s 19 20 20 Cook Oct 20 15 An amazing red fleshed apple, discovered in Aerlie, Oregon, which may be the best of all red fleshed varieties and indeed would be an outstandingly delicious apple no matter what color the flesh is. A choice seedling, Aerlie Red Flesh has a beautiful yellow skin with pale whitish dots, but it is inside that it excels. Deep rose red flesh, juicy, crisp, hard, sugary and richly flavored, ripening late (October) and keeping throughout the winter. The late Conrad Gemmer, an astute observer of apples with 500 varieties in his collection, rated Hidden Rose an outstanding variety of top quality.

  • Open KON Dissertation FINAL.Pdf
    The Pennsylvania State University The Graduate School College of Agricultural Sciences EVALUATION OF CHEMICAL AND THERMAL BLOSSOM THINNING STRATEGIES FOR APPLE A Dissertation in Horticulture by Thomas M. Kon 2016 Thomas M. Kon Submitted in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy December 2016 The dissertation of Thomas M. Kon was reviewed and approved* by the following: James R. Schupp Professor of Pomology Dissertation Advisor Chair of Committee Robert M. Crassweller Professor of Horticulture Paul Heinemann Professor and Head of Agricultural and Biological Engineering Richard Marini Professor of Horticulture Erin L. Connolly Professor of Plant Science Head of the Department of Plant Science *Signatures are on file in the Graduate School iii ABSTRACT Since 1989, approximately 150 compounds and multiple mechanical devices were evaluated as apple blossom thinners. Despite these efforts, blossom thinner adoption has been limited to a few apple producing regions or states. The purpose of this work was to: 1) compare the efficacy of promising chemical blossom thinners using a predictive model as a timing aid, and 2) evaluate the potential of short-duration thermal treatments as a blossom thinning strategy. Using a predictive model as a timing aid, the efficacy of several promising chemical blossom thinners was evaluated at Penn State’s Fruit Research and Extension Center in Biglerville, PA. Blossom thinner effects on pollen tube growth, fruit set, and yield responses were evaluated. Calcium polysulfide and ammonium thiosulfate inhibited pollen tube growth in vivo and reduced initial fruit set. Endothal was a potent thinner, but was ineffective in reducing pollen tube growth and caused excessive leaf injury.

OF AGRffini r U>2 4 L964 Agricultural Research Service U.S. DEPARTMENT OF AGRICULTURE PREFACE This publication reports on surveys of the deciduous fruit and nut clones being maintained at the Federal and State experiment stations in the United States. It will b- published in three c parts: I. Apples, II. Stone Fruit. , UI, Pears, Nuts, and Other Fruits. This survey was conducted at the request of the National Coor- dinating Committee on New Crops. Its purpose is to obtain an indication of the volume of material that would be involved in establishing clonal germ plasm repositories for the use of fruit breeders throughout the country. ACKNOWLEDGMENT Gratitude is expressed for the assistance of H. F. Winters of the New Crops Research Branch, Crops Research Division, Agricultural Research Service, under whose direction the questionnaire was designed and initial distribution made. The author also acknowledges the work of D. D. Dolan, W. R. Langford, W. H. Skrdla, and L. A. Mullen, coordinators of the New Crops Regional Cooperative Program, through whom the data used in this survey were obtained from the State experiment stations. Finally, it is recognized that much extracurricular work was expended by the various experiment stations in completing the questionnaires. : CONTENTS Introduction 1 Germany 298 Key to reporting stations. „ . 4 Soviet Union . 302 Abbreviations used in descriptions .... 6 Sweden . 303 Sports United States selections 304 Baldwin.

  • Connecticut Student Writers
    Connecticut Student Writers Excerpt from “The Seven Deadly Sins” Anne Whitehead, Grade 11 Rockville High School i Volume XXI May 2009 ii Connecticut Student Writers A publication sponsored by the iii Selection Committee Evangeline Abbott Donna Ozga Brina Abrahams Joanne Peluso Kelly Andrews‐Babcock Kim Roberts Fran Cohen Alex Rode Tulani Gant Marcia Rudge Lisa Higgins Jenny Shaff Jepsen Cathy Holdridge Kathy Uschmann Nadine Keane This publication was produced by the Connecticut Writing Project‐Storrs. Director Jason Courtmanche, Ph.D. Program Assistant Graduate Assistant/Layout Sharlene Smith Amanda Friedman Department of English 215 Glenbrook Road Unit 4025A University of Connecticut Storrs, CT 06269‐4025 (860) 486‐2328 (860) 486‐9360 fax [email protected] http://www.cwp.uconn.edu 1 FOREWORD As is implied by the cover of this year’s Connecticut Student Writers, pride in excess can be sinful, but pride in moderation is nothing more than the pleasure and satisfaction that come from diligent and superior work. The teachers of the Connecticut Writing Project are exceedingly proud to present the 21st volume of Connecticut Student Writers. The pages of this year’s magazine emanate pride. Over 1,000 Connecticut students, grades kindergarten through twelve, took such pride in their writing that they submitted hundreds of stories, poems, essays, and plays for publication. The 78 pieces selected for publication reflect our students’ strong sense of pride in their imaginations, their writing, and themselves. The Connecticut Writing Project‐Storrs congratulates the young writers whose work is published in the 2009 Connecticut Student Writers. Furthermore, we would like to thank the writers’ parents and teachers for their proud support and encouragement.
