Tree Fruits: Organic Production Overview (Summary)
Tree Fruits: Organic
Production Overview (Summary)
This guide is an overview of issues relevant to commercial organic
production of temperate zone tree fruits and, to a lesser extent,
tree nuts. It includes discussions of marketing and economics,
orchard design, and cultural considerations, including crop varieties,
site selection, site preparation, soil fertility, weed control,
and pest management (insects, diseases, and vertebrates). It raises
questions for the grower to consider in making decisions about
orchard and enterprise design. Lists of electronic and print resources
offer further, more detailed information.
