Abstract

This paper reviews research studies that assessed nutrient dynamics and the influence of orchard-specific variables on nutritional status of peach trees in different regions of the world.
Very few studies have assessed nutrient balance and peach tree requirements, and while the influence of rootstocks on nutrient uptake and partitioning have been studied in many regions, there is limited research on the effect of other orchard management practices, climatic events, or orchard characteristics on tree nutritional status.
Furthermore, we discuss the importance of assessing the established sufficiency levels and performing leaf analysis as tools to implement a fertilization program, and present the example of a field trial where annual fertilization may not always be needed as other factors such as the orchard management history or soil nutrient availability could be affecting tree nutritional requirements.
