Advanced Grafting and Budding Technology for High-Success Walnut Propagation

overview

A standardized propagation technology for walnut has been developed to achieve higher grafting and budding success under protected and open conditions. By optimizing method, timing, and scion selection, the approach enhances survival and uniformity in planting material. Cleft grafting in February and chip budding across seasons ensure reliable, genetically pure walnut plant production.
