Other claims from this paper (5)
- Intervention effect Oxamyl reduced fruit set, yield and crop value on Redchief Delicious trees.
- Intervention effect Carbaryl reduced fruit set and yield on Smoothee Golden Delicious in one of two years.
- Association Fruit set and yield declined with increasing NAA concentration in both years.
- Intervention effect NAA plus carbaryl thinned more effectively than NAA alone in one year.
- Mechanism Adequate thinning tended to reduce crop value because larger fruit did not offset reduced yield.
