Does the apple tree have to configure the pollination tree?

Apple trees need not be allocated to pollination trees. In fact, most apple cultivars can not bear fruit by pollination. Only a few varieties such as Hanfu can self grow and bear fruit, so pollination trees must be allocated. Even Hanfu can be self pollinated varieties, due to self pollen germination and pollen tube growth late slow, single species orchard due to inadequate pollination and fruit setting rate is low and the fruit shape is not regular, pollination tree can significantly increase the fruit setting rate, improve the appearance quality of the fruit. If the artificial pollination can be carried out, it can also be unmatched with a pollinated tree and plant a single variety. But it is necessary to ensure that every year there is a stable, good quality of the pollen source. So apple tree needs no pollination tree. Let's see if you want to. If you don't want it, apple pollen must be pollinated artificially.
