Title
Wind damage to kiwifruit ( Actinidia chinensis Planch.) in relation to windbreak performance
K. J. McAneney; M. J. Judd; M. C. T. Trought New Zealand Journal of Agricultural Research 1984. doi:10.1080/00288233.1984.10430427

- Association Wind damage export losses increased with distance downwind of natural windbreaks.
- Association Wind damage export losses increased with distance downwind of artificial windbreaks.
- Association Distance from natural shelter explained 57% of variation in exportable yield per vine.
- Mechanism Major losses arose from friction marks caused by fruits rubbing against fruits and canes.
- Observation Friction damage rejection was 3–10% adjacent to and leeward of natural windbreaks.
- Observation Friction damage rejection was 30–44% three to four rows downwind of artificial shelter.
- Observation Foliar damage and vegetative growth trends resembled wind rub damage trends.
- Mechanism Poor pollination prevented up to 40% of fruit reaching export size in partially shaded rows.
- Observation A Tatura trellis property with minimal internal shelter lost only 1% of fruit to wind rub.
