Biennial bearing (or alternate) bearing is a term used in pomology to refer to trees that have an irregular crop load from year to year. In the "on" year too much fruit is set, leading to small fruit size. Excess weight in the main branches can be too much for their mechanical resistance, causing them to break. Another major consequence is that flower induction will be lower, and the subsequent year will be "off" year (too little fruit).

In Switzerland cider is called Suure Most or Saft in the German-speaking part, Cidre in the Romandy, and Sidro in the Italian-speaking regions. The drink was made popular in the 19th century when apple production increased due to progress in pomology. At the turn of the century, cider consumption was at 28.1 litres per person. In the 1920s, advantages in the pasteurisation of apple juice and the emerging temperance movement led to a strong decrease of cider production.

Illustration of the 'Willermoz' pear by Alexandre Bivort from Album de Pomologie (1848–1852) Pomology (from Latin , “fruit,” + ) is a branch of botany that studies fruit and its cultivation. The term fruticulture—introduced from Romance languages (all of whose incarnations of the term descend from Latin and )—is also used. Pomological research is mainly focused on the development, enhancement, cultivation and physiological studies of fruit trees. The goals of fruit tree improvement include enhancement of fruit quality, regulation of production periods, and reduction of production cost.

During this period Andrew Jackson Downing and his brother Charles were prominent in Pomology and Horticulture, producing The Fruits and Fruit Trees of America (1845). The introduction of new varieties required exact depiction of the fruit so that plant breeders could accurately document and disseminate their research results. Since the use of scientific photography was not widespread in the late 19th century, USDA commissioned artists to create watercolor illustrations of newly introduced cultivars. Many of the watercolors were used for lithographic reproductions in USDA publications, such as the Report of the Pomologist and the Yearbook of Agriculture.

During the mid-19th century in the United States, farmers were expanding fruit orchard programs in response to growing markets. At the same time, horticulturists from the USDA and agricultural colleges were bringing new varieties to the United States from foreign expeditions, and developing experimental lots for these fruits. In response to this increased interest and activity, USDA established the Division of Pomology in 1886 and named Henry E. Van Deman as chief pomologist. An important focus of the division was to publish illustrated accounts of new varieties and to disseminate research findings to fruit growers and breeders through special publications and annual reports.

The Horticulturist and Journal of Rural Art and Rural Taste was a monthly magazine on "horticulture, landscape gardening, rural architecture, embellishments, pomology, floriculture, and all subjects of rural life, literature, art, and taste". A. J. Downing, the famous landscape designer, horticulturist, and journalist, founded the magazine in 1846 and edited it until his death in 1852. After Downing died there were several different editors, including Patrick Barry (1816–1890), John Jay Smith (1798–1881), and Henry T. Williams. In 1875 the Horticulturist and Journal of Rural Art and Rural Taste was merged with The Gardener's Monthly and Horticultural Advertiser and published from 1876 to 1888 under the title The Gardener's Monthly and Horticulturist.

The journal was his most frequent influence on society and operated under the premises of horticulture, pomology, botany, entomology, rural architecture, landscape gardening, and, unofficially, premises dedicated public welfare in various forms. It was in this journal that Downing first argued for a New York Park, which in time became Central Park. It was in this publication that Downing argued for state agricultural schools, which eventually gave rise. And it was here that Downing worked diligently to educate and influence his readers on refined tastes regarding architecture, landscape design, and even various moral issues. In 1850, as Downing traveled in Europe, an exhibition of continental landscape watercolors by Englishman Calvert Vaux captured his attention.

A plum tree with developing fruit An almond tree in bloom A fruit tree is a tree which bears fruit that is consumed or used by humans and some animals -- all trees that are flowering plants produce fruit, which are the ripened ovaries of flowers containing one or more seeds. In horticultural usage, the term "fruit tree" is limited to those that provide fruit for human food. Types of fruits are described and defined elsewhere (see Fruit), but would include "fruit" in a culinary sense, as well as some nut-bearing trees, such as walnuts. The scientific study and the cultivation of fruits is called pomology, which divides fruits into groups based on plant morphology and anatomy.

Gosden, who was winning his third consecutive Nassau Stakes, said "Her stamina kicked in today in the final furlong and she has beaten a tough nut of a filly who brought good solid form to the table". Sultanina ran twice in France after her win in the Nassau Stakes but failed to reproduce her earlier success. In a strongly-contested Prix Vermeille at Longchamp Racecourse on 14 September in which she was ridden by Ryan Moore she finished fifth in a close finish behind Baltic Baroness, Pomology, Dolniya and Treve. In the Prix de l'Opéra over 2000 metres at the same track in October he faded badly in the closing stages and finished tenth of the eleven runners.

These areas are floriculture (includes production and marketing of floral crops), landscape horticulture (includes production, marketing and maintenance of landscape plants), olericulture (includes production and marketing of vegetables), pomology (includes production and marketing of fruits), and postharvest physiology (involves maintaining quality and preventing spoilage of horticultural crops). All of these can be, and sometimes are, pursued according to the principles of organic cultivation. Organic horticulture (or organic gardening) is based on knowledge and techniques gathered over thousands of years. In general terms, organic horticulture involves natural processes, often taking place over extended periods of time, and a sustainable, holistic approach - while chemical-based horticulture focuses on immediate, isolated effects and reductionist strategies.

According to the biologist Robert Hogg in his work "British Pomology" > Fruit, above medium size, three inches wide, and two inches and three > quarters high; roundish, angular, slightly flattened, and narrowing towards > the eye. Skin, yellow on the shaded side, and covered with large patches of > pale brown russet, which extend all over the base, and sprinkled with green > and russety dots; but of a beautiful bright red, which is streaked with > deeper red, and strewed with patches and dots of russet on the side exposed > to the sun. Eye small and closed, with long flat segments, which are > reflexed at the tips and set in an irregular basin. Stalk short, inserted in > a deep and narrow cavity which is lined with russet.

Perhaps his best single work was the study carried on at Madison and the University of Chicago on "The Time and the Manner of the Formation of Flower Buds in Fruit Trees" published in 1899. Goff authored Principles of Plant Culture (1897) which by 1916 had reached its eighth edition. This volume was followed by Lessons in Pomology (1899) and Lessons in Commercial Fruit Growing (1902) Goff planted an orchard on the Madison Agriculture Station grounds seeking fruit trees hardy enough for Wisconsin's winters. In travels around the state and in conjunction with orchardist Arthur L. Hatch, Goff discovered that Door County, Wisconsin – the peninsula on the east shore of Wisconsin that extends into Lake Michigan - is remarkably suited for fruit growing.

Rudolf Ferdinand Theodor Aderhold (12 February 1865 in Frankenhausen – 17 March 1907 in Berlin-Dahlem) was a German mycologist and pomologist. He obtained his education at the University of Berlin as a student of August Wilhelm Eichler and Simon Schwendener, and at the University of Jena, where he served as an assistant to plant physiologist Christian Ernst Stahl. In 1891 he began work at the Forschungsanstalt für Garten- und Weinbau in Geisenheim, and in 1893 became director of the botanical department in the experimental station at the institute of pomology in Proskau.Aderhold, Rudolf Ferdinand Theodor NDB/ADB Deutsche BiographieBHL Taxonomic literature : a selective guide to botanical publications In 1901 he was named director of the botanical laboratory within the Biologischen Abteilung für Land- und Forstwirtschaft (Biological Department of Agriculture and Forestry) at the Imperial Health Office in Berlin.

Annales de pomologie belge et étrangère (1853–1860) was an illustrated pomology review published annually by the Belgian Commission Royale de Pomologie, with Alexandre Bivort as secretary of the editorial committee (effectively editor in chief).Émile Rodigas, "À la mémoire d’Alexandre Bivort", Bulletins d’arboriculture, de floriculture et de culture potagère (1872), p. 275. It was printed in Brussels, first by F. Parent (1853-1858) and then by his widow and son (1859-1860). Apart from Bivort himself, contributors to the Annales included Charles and Ernest Baltet, Laurent de Bavay, Jules de Liron d’Airoles, Antoine-Joseph Gailly, Charles Auguste Hennau, Alfred Loisel, Auguste Royer, Félix Sahut, and Michel Scheidweiler. Many of the illustrations were fine coloured lithographs, then a Belgian specialism in horticultural illustration,Anne-Marie Bogaert-Damin, "L’illustration des revues d’horticulture en Belgique au XIXe siècle", In Monte Artium, 7 (2014), pp. 155-176.

Mezarescu, pp. 57, 64; Minuț (2001), pp. 424–425 In 1935, Valjean similarly proclaimed that all classes were "subordinate to the plowmen".Dumitru Botar, "Din presa romanațeană de altădată (III)", in Memoria Oltului și Romanaților, Issue 4/2017, p. 32 His PNA intended to make the smallholders key players in Romania's economy, encouraging credit unions and land purchase, as well as describing a future in which labor and its product would be more expensive; it also promised to enact agricultural dirigisme, with tools such as a state plan for developing agriculture, pomology, sericulture, and handicrafts.Mezarescu, pp. 57–59; Minuț (1999), pp. 270–271 & (2001), pp. 425, 427 In parallel, Goga's intellectual debt to corporatism took form as promises to enact class collaboration, or "harmonious solidarity between workers, peasants and all other productive forces".Mezarescu, pp. 58, 61, 64 Historian Oltea Rășcanu Gramaticu, who focused on the politics of Tutova County, noted that the PNA enjoyed "some popularity", due to its "radical solutions for revitalizing small plots owned by the peasants".
