Item description from seller

Print on Demand. This book provides a comprehensive understanding of irrigating and cultivating orchards, encompassing insightful discussions on soil moisture and its impact on plant growth. The author emphasizes the importance of readily available water for trees and the need to maintain it throughout the growing season. The text explores the concept of permanent wilting percentage and its significance in determining soil dryness, highlighting that maintaining moisture above this threshold is crucial for plant health. The author underscores the irrelevance of an optimum soil moisture content and cautions against the misconceptions surrounding the term. Detailed analysis of soil properties like field capacity and the moisture equivalent enhances readers' knowledge of soil moisture dynamics. The book also delves into the effects of cultivation, dispelling common myths and misconceptions. It demonstrates that cultivation primarily serves the purpose of weed removal and facilitating orchard operations, dispelling the notion that it conserves soil moisture. Instead, the author emphasizes the importance of irrigation as the primary means of providing water to trees. This book offers a valuable resource for orchardists, providing practical guidance on irrigation and cultivation techniques, empowering them to optimize their orchard's productivity and overall health. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book.…
