Abstract
Hazelnuts were grown on either a naturally cover-cropped orchard or a traditionally tilled one and then harvested either with a single or a double harvest.
The double harvest technique combined with a permanent ground cover enhanced the quality at harvest and the preservation of hazelnuts.
The costs regarding both growing techniques were estimated and it was determined that the double harvest and single harvest produced the same financial result for the grower, since additional costs were balanced by public funding, while permanent groundcover was economically advantageous in comparison to soil tillage.
The fresh hazelnuts were stored for 6 months and results showed that double harvest enhanced the quality and reduced the percentage of unsound fruit.
Additionally, cover crop technique is not able to contain the negative effects of the single harvest.
