Do the training system and spacing affect the productivity and quality of tomato plants?

The determined growth tomato plant has advantages such as reduction of labor and inputs, enabling the production fruits for consumption " in natura" efficiently. objective this work was to evaluate conduction spacing systems between plants with tomatoes their influence on attributes quality fruit. experiment carried out open field three (“half stake”, V “mulch”) four spacings (0.2; 0.3; 0.4; 0.5 m). It found that highest yield commercial number large were obtained half stake mulch system. at m provided fruit (6.4 kg 56 fruits), 0.2 m, productivity (145.63 t ha -1). In system, had a high lycopene content. stake, favorable
