Joe Bauman our PCA with Salida Ag Chem has consistently given us good advice and I wanted to pass it onto you in regards to fall inputs in preparation for next years crop...I have also linked to the more in depth version in the body of this email.

Fall inputs this year must be matched to orchard performance. Replenishing the pantry is incredibly important for tree crops.
