The results obtained in this study shown that depth of planting significantly affected the yield. The trees planted of the place of budding 7 cm under the ground gave about twice lower yield per tree and hectar and growth the more stranger than others planted upper. Depth of planting had no significantly effect on fruit quality. Fruit mass and percent of fruits with upper 75% of coloured surface were more (significantly) influenced by weather conditions in different years
