3. » Correct timing of management operations is fundamental to successful
fruit production
» These operations are often timed to meet the period of highest “demand”
which are reflected in the growth cycles of trees
» Understanding the “extent” of each growth cycle, i.e. the size of the
demand is also important to understanding the accumulation of reserves
in plants and future cropping cycles
Phenology = tree growth cycles
4. Few challenges with temperate/deciduous trees
» Working with temperate and/or deciduous trees with a single
major growth flush each year is relatively straightforward
» Key metrics: time of flowering, time of leaf area development
(emergence and senescence) and fruit development (skin colour)
5. Challenge is with evergreen and subtropical trees
» Evergreen tropical and subtropical trees can produce multiple flushes of
vegetative and reproductive growth each year
» Significant variation between seasons and between trees
6. Key metrics for avocado:
1. Timing of vegetative and reproductive growth flushes
2. Proportion of the tree/orchard involved in each growth flush (ON
and OFF cropping trees)
