UC Fruit Report

The newly redesigned UC Fruit Report website contains useful horticultural information about establishing and managing fresh market peach, plum and nectarine orchards. It was developed by University of California scientists and others specifically for California growers. The site is maintained by Scott Johnson, Kevin Day and Ted DeJong.

Separate sections in the website are devoted to:

  • Orchard establishment
  • Rootstocks
  • Varieties
  • Pruning and training
  • Pollination
  • Thinning
  • Girdling
  • Nutrition and fertilization
  • Irrigation
