Key Points and Operation Methods of Chip Budding Grafting Technique for Pear Trees
Pear trees, due to the physiological characteristics of the variety or improper management, develop bare legs on the main branches (trunks), ultimately leading to a dense exterior and hollow interior, with fruiting branches becoming weak and shifting outward, ineffective consumption of nutrients, small fruit, poor quality, and low yield. To solve this problem, after several years of practical exploration
