Abstract

Black persimmon in the literature.The persimmon (Diospyros kaki L.) is a deciduousfruit tree originating in China. One type consisting of a groupof similar cultivars is the black persimmon, which is a preciousgermplasm resource of China. Black persimmon is mainly distributedin the south of the Taihang Mountains in northern China. Black persimmonis astringent, though this astringency can now be removed easilyvia normal maturity of the fruit. The skin of the fruit is blackand the flesh has abundant nutritional value, with vitamin C andcarotene. Information given by a black persimmon orchard.A trial on black persimmon was carried out from 2003 to 2009 inZhengzhou, Henan province, China. Plant growth, yields and phenologicalcharacteristics were studied. The fruit has a thick skin which assistsin storage and transportation; it has excellent flavor and quality,making the fruit highly valued by producers, marketers and consumers. Key cultivation techniques. Practices to achieve highquality are reviewed such as the proper plant environment, tree plantingand pruning, the soil management, the wintering and protection ofyoung trees, and pest control.
