Abstract: In Tai’an, use the trunk-shaped peach for example, the relationship between the angle of incidence of the sun (elevation, azimuth) and the spacing of fruit trees were studied to provide a theoretical basis of reasonable choice for the spacing and trunk height. The results showed that: in Tai’an and surrounding areas, with comprehensive analysis of the angle of incidence of the sun and tree height and other facts, in trunk-shaped pruning orchards with 4-meter mature trees, line spacing should choose 4-5 m. According to the relationships of trunk height and line spacing and tree spacing, in the new orchard, young trees trunk height 1.0 m, mature tree trunk height 0.8 m and tree spacing 2 m was appropriate.
