The Importance of Post Harvest Irrigation with Almonds

Yara's Crop Nutrition podcast

Permanant Crop Manager, Devin Clarke, talks about the importance of post harvest irrigation on almonds relative to carbohydrate production and storage. It is the only time that we can build carbohydrates in excess of what the tree is demanding and store for the coming bloom resulting in improved yields.

This episode originally aired in the fall of 2018 when we weren't in an extreme drought. In this episode Yara's Regional Sales Manager, Peter DeBoer, and Spencer Cooper, formerly with the Almond Board of California discuss strategies to properly irrigate almonds post harvest.
