Abstract: | Girdled limbs of ‘Fuerte’ avocado produced a bigger crop than controls for 3 consecutive years. Limbs girdled for 4 consecutive years yielded the same as the control, but healed slowly. Yield was maintained in the year after girdling was stopped. The number of seedless fruit was not increased by girdling. |
