Persimmon Yield

Diospyros kaki L. f.

Persimmon yield is assessed by the weight of fruit per tree or per hectare and depends on the age of the orchard, varietal characteristics, and pollination technology. Productivity potential can range from 30 to over 200 kg per tree, depending on the age and genetics of the cultivar.

In the reference 12 varieties crop Persimmon, where this is mentioned in the description.

To assess persimmon productivity, indicators such as fruit weight per tree and yield per unit area are used. Age dynamics are significant: while young trees aged 10–14 years have an average productivity of about 30 kg, mature specimens (20–27 years) reach 50 kg or more. In commercial orchards, these figures can reach 200–250 c/ha.

Varietal differences in yield are significant: under identical conditions, figures range from 71 kg for the Hachiya cultivar to 268.5 kg for the Tamopan cultivar per tree. Yield is also limited by biological features of the cultivar, such as the ability for parthenocarpy and the need for cross-pollination to increase fruit set.

Agrotechnical factors, such as crown formation methods, can increase yield by 10–15%. An important condition for realizing productivity potential is the availability of moisture and nutrients, particularly nitrogen, as well as the ecological plasticity of the cultivar, which ensures yield stability across years.
