SPATIAL VARIATION OF TREE COVER IN PEACH ORCHARDS

Abstract

Tree canopy cover governs radiation interception and thereby sets orchard yield potential and crop water requirement.
This study investigated the variation of tree canopy cover between micro-irrigated peach orchards in the Goulburn valley.
Tree cover in 56 mature (

4 year old) commercial orchards was analysed using aerial photographs.
Cover ranged from 20 to 66% (coefficient of variation = 20%, n = 56). Adjusting management to cope with this orchard-to-orchard variability in tree cover is important for environmental protection and optimising production.
The potential for large water savings using irrigation management practices that account for tree cover is discussed.
