Nic® 29 is a more vigorous M9 type with a more developed root system (equivalent to Pajam 2 - Cepiland cv), as a result trees on Nic® 29 have more vitality in orchards than the normal M9.
Produces a better rooting system than other selections and produces significantly more plants by the layering method when compared to other M9 selections.
When growing finished trees, the rootstock will produce a higher quality of nursery stock. This means better and less brittle roots, more trunk diameter, more laterals.
Orchard trees on Nic® 29 will approach M26 in size but with M9 precocity and productivity.
