Wednesday\, 12 June 2024 from 10.00am – 12.00pm at 427 Mangakahia Road\, Whangarei. \nWhen we last visited the orchard\, Deon had recently started a trial where different ground cover species were planted to help suppress weeds\, reduce mowing and provide additional benefits. Learnings from the first Summer will be shared. \nExport packout is a key influence on orchard returns. Shelter and canopy management have a major influence on packout and will be discussed at the field day. \nWe hope to have a collective discussion on how growers are changing or modifying their orchard management to reduce costs and improve efficiencies on orchard. \nRegister below for the Mid North field day: Whangarei\, 12 June 2024\n\n \n Name* PPIN (if applicable) Email*\n \n Have your contact details changed?\n \n Yes\, NZ Avocado will update your records.\n PhonePostal address \n \n \n \n Street Address\n \n \n Address Line 2\n \n \n City\n \n \n State / Province / Region\n \n \n ZIP / Postal Code\n \n \n CAPTCHA URL:https://industry.nzavocado.co.nz/events/field-day-mid-north-12-june-2024/ LOCATION:427 Mangakahia Road\, Whangarei ORGANIZER;CN="NZ Avocado":MAILTO:info@nzavocado.co.nz END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=Pacific/Auckland:20240611T130000 DTEND;TZID=Pacific/Auckland:20240611T150000 DTSTAMP:20260404T075927 CREATED:20240522T211936Z LAST-MODIFIED:20240906T014656Z UID:10047-1718110800-1718118000@industry.nzavocado.co.nz SUMMARY:Field day: Far North\, 11 June 2024 DESCRIPTION:NZ Avocado invites you to join us on Mervyn Evan’s orchard to discuss shelter as it relates to packout\, recent drainage improvements and general orchard management to maximise efficiency and orchard returns. Tuesday\, 11 June 2024 from 1.00pm – 3.00pm at 129 Burnage Road\, Pukenui. \nExport packout has a key influence on orchard returns.
