Fruit load on 5-year-old 'Hongro'/M.9 (3.5×1.0m in planting distance) apple was adjusted to 3, 4, 5, or 6 fruits per trunk cross-sectional area (TCA) ㎠ in 2003, and to 4, 5, or 6 fruits in 2004, in oder to find the optimum fruit load level from the viewpoint of profitability in case of farmer-to-consumer direct sale. Vegetative growth such as TCA increment and shoot length per fruit weight was reduced, but yield per tree significantly increased by increasing crop load level.
