PAMIR NO. 5

A universal foundation for your orchard

"Pamirsky 5" is the result of long-term breeding by the N.I. Vavilov Research Institute (VIR), which has firmly established itself in the niche of semi-dwarf rootstocks. Its key feature is a versatility rare in breeding: this rootstock shows excellent compatibility not only with apple trees but also with pear and plum trees. In nursery conditions, this allows orchardists to standardize planting material, working with different stone and pome fruits on a single base.

Why choose Pamirsky 5?

• Technological flexibility: The semi-dwarf nature of the rootstock eliminates the need for expensive trellis systems, significantly reducing the cost of establishing an orchard.
• Protective barrier: Trees grafted onto this rootstock demonstrate moderate resistance to powdery mildew. While this does not eliminate the need for fungicide treatments, it significantly reduces the disease pressure in the orchard, especially in years with high humidity.
• Proven origin: Development by the VIR Research Center guarantees genetic stability and line purity, which is critical for professional farms planning long-term high-yield production.

Operational features

Pamirsky 5 is an optimal choice for intensive and semi-intensive orchards. It is perfect for farms seeking a balance between tree compactness and a robust root system. However, it should be noted that its "moderate" resistance to pathogens requires a systematic approach to orchard protection: in regions with aggressive powdery mildew spread, calendar-based treatments remain mandatory. It is a practical tool for agronomists who value predictable yields and a moderate canopy height, which simplifies maintenance and harvesting.
