New Species of Apple Tree
KCNA
Pyongyang, November 21 (KCNA) -- A new species of apple tree has been planted on the Hwangju Fruit Farm, North Hwanghae Province, and other fruit farms throughout the Democratic People's Republic of Korea.
Its per-hectare output is more than double that of other species and it bears fruits earlier than the latter.
The short apple tree starts to bear fruits two years after its plantation and, after seven years, enters its heyday, which continues for 10-odd years.
It is easy to replace old trees with saplings. As the trees are replaced in a rotation way, there is no decrease in harvest.
The height of the tree is no more than 2 meters. So it is also easy to lop, spray insecticides and pick fruits
