We are developing a pecan tree which we generate in the lab through tissue culture development. The benefit of this tree is that all the trees will have the same DNA structure.
This will give a uniform orchard with high potential.
We manage solar penetration into the tree. There are many different styles to hedge but we must try to get the tree in balance between vegetative development and root development. The thicker your shoots are the more new shoots will develop and the less sun will go into the canopy of the tree and less nuts will be produced.
