5 May 2026 - Recent Weather Impacts on Pomes & Stones with Win Cowgill, Scab and Fire Blight Updates
Q: What was the overall strategy for protecting or salvaging orchards after the freeze, and how do growers decide whether to maintain or abandon a block?
The strategy varies by farm but generally involves weighing economic thresholds against potential longer-term losses. If enough of the block remains economically viable and pest/disease pressure can be controlled with fewer sprays, growers may maintain the block and salvage fruit using targeted tools like growth regulators or early thinning. If the expected payoff is too low, abandoning and pruning for next year may be advised to prevent continuing losses and to reduce ongoing input costs.
