Cultivation

Fresh Consumption of Plum

Prunus domestica L.

The use of plum fruits for fresh consumption involves selecting cultivars based on tasting scores, market appearance, and biochemical composition. To ensure a constant supply of produce, a conveyor of cultivars with different ripening times is established.

In the reference 332 varieties crop European plum, where this is mentioned in the description.

During the cultivar evaluation of plums for fresh consumption, priority is given to flavor, fruit size, skin color attractiveness, and the ease of stone separation. Dessert cultivars of the Reine Claude group are highly valued for their tender flesh, while cultivars of the Prune group are more often classified as dual-purpose due to their firmer texture.

Important indicators include a balanced content of sugars, organic acids, and vitamin composition. For commercial production, shelf life and the ability of the fruits to withstand transportation are critically significant factors, which are taken into account in state cultivar testing protocols during organoleptic assessment.
