In order to solve the problem that the base of the main branch is easy to break in case of rainfall and windy weather, and the peach cultivation is not suitable for mechanized production, this paper proposed an X-shaped cultivation technology for peach trees suitable for mechanized operation. The main points of cultivation techniques for the new “X” shaped tree type included planting and shaping operation. Planting: selected first-class peach seedlings, each two peach seedlings were planted together, the intersection of the two peach seedlings was 40 cm away from the ground, and the angle between the two peach seedlings in the horizontal direction was 50°~60°; The extension heads of the two peach seedlings stretched out between the rows on both sides respectively, and the direction was perpendicular to the row direction of the ridge. Two peach seedlings were planted together and regarded as one in production; shaping: after the “X” shape was planted, the buds of the two peach seedlings were cut off at the full and full place, and the upper end of the main trunk of the two peach seedlings was the two main branches in production, which was equivalent to the two main branches of the “Y” shaped tree type, which were formed once after planting. The “X” shaped new tree type was the top of the trunk of two peach seedlings directly emitting a new shoot uniaxial extension as the main branch, each of which continues to grow upward, does not affect each other, balanced growth, easy to operate by fruit farmers, saves labor, and directly regulates the angle of the main trunk of the two seedlings when planting, which was simple and accurate, after planting, the tree type can be formed half a year in advance, which increases the compression resistance to a certain extent, and the main branch was not easy to break.
