Valencia selections on two rootstocks
We further explore the outcomes of our trials that were done to determine suitable Valencia cultivars on Swingle citrumelo (SC) and US-812 (SxB) citrandarin rootstocks for an intermediate citrus production area.
In the SA Fruit Journal Aug/Sep ’25 edition, we shared results relating to Jasi Valencia and Kobus du Toit Late Valencia selections. Now, we will look at Late Valencia, McClean SL Valencia and Midknight Valencia and conclude on the suitability of these Valencia selections.
