Variety traits
Prunus armeniaca L.
Classification of apricot cultivars based on the timing of fruit harvest maturity, used in breeding and variety testing for organizing a continuous harvesting schedule.
In the reference 285 varieties crop Apricot, where this is mentioned in the description.
Apricot cultivars are divided into early-ripening, which mature in late June and early July; mid-ripening, which fall within July and the first ten days of August; and late-ripening, which reach maturity at the end of August or early September. The definition of these groups is based on phenological observations and calendar periods by the decade of the month, as absolute dates depend on regional agroclimatic conditions.
This trait is of key importance for risk management, as early varieties are often more susceptible to spring frosts due to their flowering characteristics. The use of cultivars from different ripening groups allows agronomists to evenly distribute labor requirements during harvest and to plan the utilization of produce based on fruit shelf life and suitability for processing.
