- Observation Rootstock explained most tree growth differences after two seasons.
- Observation CG.6210 increased trunk diameter, leader height and lateral shoot growth.
- Observation M.26 trees grew least over two years.
- Association Replant growth was greater in old grass lanes than old tree rows.
- Observation Old grass lanes had higher root lesion nematode populations.
- Intervention effect Preplant compost did not increase first year tree growth.
