Results revealed that fruit nursery tree production was 850.570 trees per year based on the survey study. In the research area, 57% of fruit nursery tree production was for apple following sweet cherry (16%) and peach (10%). The use of clonal rootstocks and seedlings by state and private sector for fruit nursery tree were 51% and 49%, respectively. Apple is mostly propagated by the clonal rootstock (44%) whereas all varieties of the apricot, sour cherry and pear are propagated by seedlings. For all fruit varieties, propagation of conventional varieties as well as varieties for export is getting widespread. Nursery tree producers prefer to use commonly T-graft in the dormant season.
