Post-Harvest Topics at Almond Field Day
Doll spoke about soil salinity and the problems facing producers in the drought year. Many growers had questions about how they can manage salinity in the different soil types of California. Doll urged growers to keep a consistent leaching program now and through the rains when they come. Brar talked about the importance of a post-harvest check list. Next year will likely be a tough year as the drought continues and Brar says the health of next year’s orchard starts at the end of this year’s harvest.
