GENERAL INFORMATION

• Kiwifruit or Chinese gooseberry is the edible berry of several species of woody vines in the genus Actinidia.
• The most common cultivar group of kiwifruit is oval, about the size of a large hen's egg: 5–8cm in length and 4.5–5.5 cm in diameter.

SOIL REQUIREMENT

• Deep, rich, well-drained sandy loam soils are ideal for the cultivation of kiwi.
• A soil pH slightly less than 6.9 results in maximum yield but higher pH up to 7.3 adversely affects the yield due to Mn deficiency.
