On The Orchard Series: Land Prep
Converting dairy farmland into a high-performance kiwifruit orchard 🥝 Join us as we document every step, experiment with new techniques, and learn together! This time we're not going it alone - we're bringing our growing community along for the entire journey.
We are On the Orchard! 🥝Come behind the scenes with Zane and take a look at our second Kiwifuit Orchard Development. 🚜 This 4-hectare block has been used for dairy farming for 20+ years. Standard deep ripping didn't cut it on our first block. So like Zane said, we're trying something different: A 1.2m deep rip with modified welded wing tips thanks to Griffiths Engineering. What would you try or what have you tried on heavily compacted dairy land? Drop your thoughts below and follow along to see how our theory goes in practice. 🤔
