Commercial Evaluation of Five Almond Cultivars in Northwestern Mexico

View through CrossRef
The total shell almond production in northwestern area in Mexico is ≈80 tons per year; therefore, almond fruit tree would be a potential fruit crop in this agricultural area. Also, this crop offers some advantages with lower costs than other fruit crop, and the water requirement needs for almond trees is low in support to the limited water availability. Our objective was to test new five almond cultivars of low chilling requirement. Almond cultivars were grafted on Nemaguard rootstock and planted during 1990. The data were collected from the almond orchard using the inshell kernel. The average yield during 1993 and 1994 were 970, 602, 552, 419, and 388 kg·ha–1 for `R-633', `Cavaliera', `Constantini', `Um El Fahm', and `Rane', respectively. `Cavaliera' and `Um El Fahm' showed good inshell percent and kernel weight. `Cavaliera' was harvested early in last week of June compared to the other cultivars that were harvested in mid-July.
