How Should Hazel Trees Be Planted?

Hazelnut is woody grain and woody oil species, comprehensive utilization of high value; the same time, hazelnut nutritional value is also high, its ingredients are mainly concentrated in the hazelnut shell and hazelnut seeds. So hazelnut food should be a large number of major food processors processing, while the major hazelnut machinery such as hazelnut roaster machine, hazelnut shell removing machine should also be mass production.

The hazel tree is planted as follows:
1. hazelnut garden hazelnut flower for the male and female strains of different flowers, that is, single flowers, the first flower after the leaves. Male flowers for the catkin, was born in the new upper part of the upper part of the axillary, female flowers for the head of the inflorescence, was born in the middle of the annual branches or branches of the top branches, by wind media pollination. Therefore, the hazel tree should have the same flowering or similar varieties for pollination tree configuration, generally the same garden to 3 varieties is appropriate, the ratio can be 5 to 6: 1.

2. Temperature of different types of hazel, the temperature requirements vary. Europe hazel hi warm and humid climate. Suitable for the average temperature of 13 ~ 15 ℃, the absolute minimum -10 ℃, extreme high temperature 38 ℃ area. Ping'er hybrids are more resistant to cold than wild hazel, suitable for average annual temperature of 7.5 ~ 13 ℃, the minimum temperature up to -30 ℃ area cultivation.

3. Light hazelnut for hi light plants, the general requirements of the sunshine hours in 2100 hours or more, otherwise the formation of less buds, low yield.

4. Soil
Hazel grows on fertile and well-ventilated sandy loam, especially in the case of high-density, dry sand, sticky soil, swamp, salted and low-lying areas. Pingyang hybrids require soil pH of 6.5 to 7.5 and 5.5% of Hazel.

5. nurture
Hazelnut branches easy to take root, adventitious buds easy to germinate root tiller. Therefore, usually with pressure or graft propagation breeding seedlings. Early spring pressure with a year old healthy germination branches, June pressure with the year of raw twigs for the material. Grafting nursery, multi-purpose hazelnut seedling for the rootstock.

6. Improve production measures
Hazelnut easy to fall fruit, fruit empty particles and the rate of high morbidity. Main measures to prevent:
① breeding seedlings to choose a good mother tree.
② set up a good pollination tree garden, and supplemented by artificial pollination.
③ strengthen the management of adequate nutrition.
