AVOCADO QUARTERLY
Avocado Quarterly JUne 2021
As an avocado contractor, we are being kept very busy with continued growth in the industry. From the
beginning of the export season, our team has picked 2700 bins. We are now finishing up the local market
pick and have begun pruning.
Avocado Quarterly November 2020
Spring is my favourite time of the year on the orchard – the trees are literally buzzing as the bees work hard to pollinate flowers for next year’s crop, and the trees are looking their best with lots of new flush and flower. We’ve put in the hard work with pruning and fertilising throughout the year, and now we can see those results in the health of the trees.

Lockdown proved useful on orchard given we were confined to our property (yes we are 70 years+). All
seasonal activities were achieved and the orchard is right up-to-date. A big thank you to all our pruning,
shelter trimming, mulching and spraying contractors.
