The Effects of Plant Spacing and Pruning System on Plant Performance, Yield and Quality of Bananas 'Mas' (AA) and 'Berangan' (AAA)

The study was conducted to find out the effects of spacing and pruning system on the performance of 2 cultivars of bananas, namely, 'Mas' and 'Berangan'. The trial was conducted at 2 locations: MARDI Jerangau, Terengganu and MARDI Serdang, Selangor. For both locations the hi...
