Four training systems were evaluated for their ability to promote preco city in ‘Anjou’ pears. Both the angle-trained and spindle-trained trees produced significantly higher yields than central-leader trees with or without spreaders in the first 5 years of production after which production was similar in all 4 systems. Labour input during the tenure of the study was lower for angle- than for spindle-trained trees.
