Description

A parthenocarpic tomato cultivar, 'MPK-1', was cultivated in a plastic film house with a thermal curtain without heating from October to April in Takatsuki, Osaka to investigate the possibility of saving fuel by producing tomatoes under lower temperatures. The daily mean temperature was kept at over 8℃ through the period, but the daily minimum temperatures sometimes dropped to under 5℃ from December and did not reach over 10℃ until late in March. The yields of the 'MPK-1' planted in October were estimated as 213-283kg/a from December to April. However, most of the harvested fruits in April were small and not suitable for market. And yield of those planted in November, December or January, were below half of that of the one planted in October. The parthenocarpic tomato clutivar can thus be used to produce tomatoes under lower temperatures and thus save fuel.
