In Brazil, most peach production is concentrated in the state of Rio Grande do Sul. This sector involves working on small families farms. The increase in the product demand brings out the critical level of the consumers regarding to product quality. Therefore, the market requires new attributes accomplished to the product; considering aspects such as organoleptic characteristics, food security and environmental protection. This work aimed to reduce peach tree vigor of the cultivar Jubileu by using different interstocks length of Granada . It was carried evaluations to indicate the better length of interstock to promote tree vigor reduction without significatively altering phenological and productivity characteristics, and fruit quality. And also, it was measured the effect of different interstock lengths on flowering and harvesting time, yield and qualitative characteristics of the fruits. The experiment was carried out at the Centro Agropecuário da Palma belonging to the Faculdade de Agronomia Eliseu Maciel of the Universidade Federal de Pelotas. Important part of the vegetative growth and production of peach cv. Jubileu is directly related to interstock length. The increase in interstock length anticipates the beginning of flowering and full bloom. The vigor reduction induced by the longer interstocks promotes an increase in floral differentiation. The twenty cm length interstock promotes an increase in plant mortality; therefore, it is indicated Granada interstocks with 10 and 15cm length. The use of intergrafting, independently interstock length, has little effect on physic-chemical characteristics of the fruits. Ten and fifteen cm length interstock were most efficient for yield without altering peach quality of Jubileu .
