Focusing on high-performance cultivation

Tree architecture & yield stability: Implementing canopy structures that optimize light interception, improve fruiting shoot quality, and ensure consistent return bloom. Our approach recognizes that yield regularity is not determined by cultivar alone, but by the interaction between cultivar bearing habits and pruning strategy. Research from high-density apple orchards has demonstrated that short-pruning systems relying on heading cuts may disrupt vegetative–generative balance, promote excessive vegetative dominance in the upper canopy, and increase the risk of biennial bearing. In contrast, long-pruning systems that preserve the natural hierarchy of fruiting shoots support stable floral initiation and promote regular cropping across years. By integrating tree architecture principles with crop load and nutritional management, we develop orchard systems designed to maintain vegetative–generative balance and yield consistency

Strategic orchard establishment & mechanization planning: Expert selection of rootstock–cultivar combinations tailored for dwarfing potential and production goals, supported by tree architecture-driven training system design and mechanization planning. This integrated approach aligns orchard structure, harvest efficiency, and economic scale from the establishment stage, enabling production systems that maximize biological performance and long-term economic resilience

Sustainability is not just an ideal—it is a prerequisite for resilience. We apply universal biological principles to enhance the health of the entire orchard ecosystem

Soil health: Harnessing root-associated microorganisms to revitalize soil vitality and maximize nutrient uptake

Stress tolerance & resilience: Developing proactive strategies to bolster tree resilience against increasing biotic (pests/diseases) and abiotic (climate/environmental) stress factors

The path to zero-pesticide: Implementing innovative, science-backed transitions to reduce chemical dependency

Resilient breeding goals: Guiding the selection of cultivars and rootstocks specifically adapted to the challenges of a changing climate

Specialized solution for water-scarce environments

Drought-tolerant orchard models: Optimizing production in arid regions where irrigation is not an option. By leveraging rootstock-specific drought resilience and strategic soil conservation, we develop viable systems for almonds and other drought-tolerant temperate species
