Summary
Long-term organic fruit tree production trials have been carried out since 1994 in the INRA (National Institute for Agricultural Research) Gotheron experimental station. The aim was: (i) to identify and analyse the key problems (mainly related to pest control and soil fertility) for two perennial crops, apple and peach; and (ii) to assess the effect of organic production on the orchard performance and perenniality, and on its arthropod community.
