RECENT TIPS AND AGRONOMIC NEWS FROM THE WESTERN SOUTH 

We keep our finger on the pulse of emerging knowledge and insights that we can incorporate into our services. Read up on the following findings: 

January 2022 Almond Update

A new year is upon us and soon almonds will be breaking dormancy to kick off the 2022 growing season.  As the proverbial question asks, which came first, the chicken or the egg?  One might ask, which comes first, new roots or new leaves?  As can be seen in the graphics below it is clear that immediately following bloom leaf out begins and after that, the first flush of spring root growth occurs (research conducted by Patrick Brown, et al). 

A New Layer of Data from Trace Genomics

The gap in fully understanding soil chemistry has always been a lack of data for the unseen portion of the plant: the root system and soil rhizosphere. This is where Trace Genomics—Wilbur Ellis’ impressive new offering in analytics—comes in.

Post-Harvest Irrigation Management

Almond harvest is not only stressful for growers trying to deliver nuts to the processor—it’s also inherently stressful for the trees. For several reasons, it’s not uncommon for orchards to go through weeks of dry periods in which irrigation is withheld.
