This study was carried out to investigate the effect of summer pruning on the yield, fruit size, and fruit quality of the 6-year old Fuji apple cultivar from 1983 to 1985. Summer pruning was not effective on the increase of the yield and fruit size compared with control in 1983 and 1984, while decrease the yield in 1985. Soluble solids were decreased, and fruit colour was improved but acidity and fruit firmness were not affected by summer pruning. The occurrence of bitter pit was decreased at the harvesting time and during storage, for 3 years. Ca content of fruit skin was increased, while N and K content was not affected by summer pruning
