In the search for methods of reducing direct pest control in organic fruit growing, several farmers in South Tirol and Austria who have experience in this field were visited. At the same time, various cultivars of apple, pear and peach were observed in the research orchard of the Institute for Fruit Production and Horticulture at the University of Agricultural Sciences in Vienna. Clear differences among varieties with regard to their susceptibility to important pests and diseases were readily observable. The necessity of testing cultivars in organically managed systems using a minimum of direct plant protection was emphasized by many farmers. The farmer's experience and our own observations demonstrated that soil management, fertilization, rootstocks,... |

Pear trees on their own roots are tested in comparison to grafted trees in growth and yield characteristics and with special regard to the tolerance to diseases, above all fire blight (Erwinia amylovora). In spring 2004 15 randomized trees of the cultivar 'Williams' from three variants (self rooted in vitro, self rooted long cuttings, grafted on Quince A) were planted in a pear orchard, which was heavily infected with fire blight (Erwinia amylovora) the previous years. The trees were left untreated. Growth and yield characteristics, plant diseases and tree losses were observed. After four years the in vitro self rooted trees were significantly more vigorous in growth than those grafted on quince A. The self rooted long cuttings were comparable in... |

Soil-borne pathogens, above all Verticillium sp. cause plant losses and yield decreases in many Austrian strawberry fields, also in organic farming systems; in a research project possibilities to resolve this problem were examined. In a field trial, which was started 1998, organically managed and differently fertilized plots (green compost, manure, hornchips) were compared to an unfertilised control plot and to two mineral fertilized and conventionally treated plots; the differences in field characteristics of strawberries in 2004 and 2005 were low, but differences in storage and biochemical characteristics could be seen in 2005. Some new cultivars tested as alternative to the very sensitive 'Elsanta' planted in 2005 on several farms showed a higher... |

In Osterreich ist die Nachfrage nach biologisch produzierten Erdbeeren im Steigen. Die im Erdbeeranbau verwendete Hauptsorte Elsanta weist aber eine hohe Anfälligkeit vor allem gegenüber Wurzelkrankheiten (Phytophthora sp., Verticillium sp.) auf. Für den biologischen Landbau ist sie daher nur bedingt geeignet. Am Markt werden regelmäßig neue Sorten angeboten, für deren Anbau es in Österreich noch wenig praktische Erfahrung gibt. Im vorliegenden Versuch wurden 12 neue und 2 Standardsorten auf ihre Eignung für den biologischen Anbau getestet. |

The suitability of nectarine and peach cultivars for organic production was examined in a field experiment in the experimental orchard of the institute in Vienna. Therefore, fifteen cultivars including Redhaven as standard cultivar were planted in 2003 and cultivated organically. Characteristics of the cultivars, such as blossom, growth, yield and susceptibility to frost damage and diseases (Taphrina deformans and Monilinia ssp.) were examined. Furthermore, fruit quality characteristics were checked in the laboratory. The results of growth, yield, susceptibility to damages and diseases and fruit quality showed significant differences among the cultivars. ‘Redhaven’, ‘Sweethaven’, ‘Redcal’, ‘Benedikte’ and ‘Mireille’ can be recommended for organic... |

As part of a research project 13 cultivars were planted in 2005 at 11 sites on 9 farms in 5 different Austrian regions. The aim was to find new cultivars tolerant to soil-borne pathogens and leaf/fruit diseases, with high yield, winter hardness and good fruit quality, to serve as alternative to the highly susceptible cultivar ‘Elsanta’, regarding soil-borne diseases. Plant vigour and infestation with Verticillium dahliae and leaf diseases were evaluated in 2005 und 2006 at 7 sites and in 2007 at 3 sites. In addition, following parameters were assessed on 2 organically managed sites in 2006 and 2007: marketable yield, percentage of different categories of unmarketable fruits and incidence of the blossom weevil. In 2006 fruit characteristics and... |
