Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Apple Growing in California With the large crop of 1926 in practically all sections, prices received for California apples were extremely low. However, the eight-year averages of total value, when compared with comparable figures of other deciduous fruits during the same period, show the value of California's apple crop to have been approximately three times that of either cherries or shipping plums, three times the almond crop, about one million and a half dollars in excess of the pear crop, and almost as great as that of apricot crop. In 1920 and 1921 rather extensive new plantings were made in Sonoma, Butte, San Bernardino, Kern, and Inyo counties. During the past five years new plantings have not been so extensive except in Sonoma and Tuolumne counties. The total number of non-bearing trees for the state now shows a slight decline, while the bearing acreage shows a gradual and consistent increase. With the exception of 1923, a heavy crop year, production has been relatively uniform. Yields on the Whole are dependable, not being so seriously affected by frosts and drought as are the orchards of the eastern states.

Download or read book The Home Orchard written by Chuck A. Ingels and published by UCANR Publications. This book was released on 2007 with total page 212 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Developed especially for use by backyard orchardists, rare fruit growers, and small-scale growers, The Home Orchard offers a comprehensive look at standard growing methods, as well as some innovative practices that enthusiasts have developed in recent years, some of which are uniquely suited to the small-scale grower. You will learn how trees grow, which species grow best in the different regions and soils, varieties from which to select, preparing the soil, planting, watering and fertilizing, pruning and grafting, thinning the fruit, diagnosing problems, controlling pests, and harvesting. You'll also find special attention given to organic and non-toxic pest management and fertilization methods. Key pests and diseases are identified and natural control methods are emphasized. Irrigation methods for the backyard grower are discussed and the difficult task of how often and how much water to apply is simplified. The focus is on giving the trees enough water but doing so in an efficient, water-saving manner. Included are hundreds of photographs and diagrams that clearly show how to produce the best crops. Photos of several practices, such as key budding and grafting methods, are depicted in step-by-step photos. No other publication provides this breadth and depth of coverage --
Download or read book Apple Growing in California written by Geo; P. Weldon and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-26 with total page 130 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Apple Growing in California: A Practical Treatise Designed to Cover Some of the Important Phases of Apple Culture Within the State The great importance of the apple in our state, the many failures among those who have attempted to grow this fruit, the common opinion that an apple orchard can not be made a paying proposition, and the hopeless neglect and consequent failure to produce what might be beautiful and profitable orchards, together with a dearth of literature on the subject, are some of the things that induced the author to write this little book. It is published with a realization of its incompleteness and possible errors, but if it will in a small way, at least, serve as a guide to future profitable apple culture in California, the efforts put forth will in no way be regretted. While primarily a treatise on apple culture, several of the chapters are designed to teach lessons that will be valuable in the culture of other fruits: For example, chapters on Pruning, Intercropping and Cover Crops. I wish to express thanks to Dr. A. J. Cook, under whose direction the investigations were conducted, and who has at all times cooperated with me in the work. His valuable assistance in reading the manuscript is appreciated. Thanks are also due Prof. A. V. Stubenrauch, Pomologist of the State University at Berkeley, Mr. W. H. Volck, County Horticultural Commissioner of Santa Cruz County and Mr. W.S. Ballard, Pathologist, Fruit-Disease Investigations, United States Department of Agriculture, each of whom kindly read parts of my manuscript; also to Mr. E. J. Vosler. Secretary of the State Commission of Horticulture and Mr. H. S. Smith. Superintendent of the State Insectary, for the same courtesy. For illustrations I am indebted to the State University, Mr. C. B. AYVeks, County Horticultural Commissioner of Tehama County, Mr. O. E. Bremner, County Horticultural Commissioner of Sonoma County, and Mr. J.F. Benton of Arcata.
