Improvement Of Yield Potential In Commercial Fennel Crops Through Improved Fruit Set
Commercial crops in Tasmania were found to be setting less than their total fruit potential. Since the fruit is the commericially valuable part of the crop, returns to the grower could be improved by increasing the fruit yield. The underlying theme of this work was to examine the agricultural ecology and physiology of fennel with the intention of finding means to improve the yield of fruit from fennel crops in Tasmania.
