Apples & Pears

Grow More High Value Apples and Pears with innovative Drip Irrigation techniques

Orchard farming techniques have evolved and today, they are planted in denser rows that are closer together leading to shallow and crowded root systems.

To produce high quality, large fruit that will be accepted by high value markets, you need to use the best farm and irrigation practices.

As fruit size is extremely dependent on the plant’s water status, drip irrigation is the optimal way to provide the right amount of water and nutrition to the tree.

High quality irrigation and fertigation systems are two of the most important tools you have to ensure consistent, uniform fruit size and maximum potential fruit size.

Rivulis can design an irrigation system to maximize your crop potential and help you grow the largest, high quality fruit so that you make the most profit. In addition, we can help you calculate your water and fertigation requirements and schedule and design a system that provides frost protection.
