At the Cauquenes Experimental Station (INIA), the establishment of cherimoya fruit trees was intended in 1982. Even though the location of the plot was secure in respect to low temperatures, plants did not survive the 1983 winter, in almost a 100%. The conclusion is that the species can not be cultivated in the area.
