Several pomological and chemical fruit properties of introduced sweet cherry cultivars in agroecological conditions of Eastern Slavonia

Modern sweet cherry growing requires cultivars with good pomological and chemical characteristics in order to ensure successfull production. Our goal was to assess fruit quality of introduced cultivars grown in agroecological conditions of Eastern Slavonia region. This study was conducted during the 2011 growing season on the seven introduced sweet cherry cultivars grown in orchard Tovljač (Agricultural Institute Osijek). Pomological (fruit weight, stone weight, randman) and chemical (total soluble solids, total titrable acidity, pH value) characteristics were determined. Results showed differences in investigated parameters between the cultivars. Among the evaluated sweet cherry cultivars, Regina is the most promising cultivar because of large fruits and good quality characteristics.
