Sprinkling to protect fruit most economical Another year good is has been considerable interest in the use of sprinkling to protect an- for Utahs fruit says Commissioner producers, Utah Joseph H. Francis, ticipated Department Agriculture, temfreezing providing peratures do not damage the buds before they blossom. However, because of recent studies and experiments conducted by Utah State university scientists, fruit growers can now take certain precautions to Sprinkle Trees The first is the method which has been tested for 10 to 15 years consisting of sprinkling the trees during hours when temperatures are below freezing with sufficient water to maintain a mixture of ice and water on the buds at all times until the ice has melted. This method is very effective, but often the weight of the ice load developed on the trees has protect against heavy frost damage. According to E. Arlo Richardson, Utah State Department of climatologist, Agriculture during the last two years there NYLON CORD "RIB It II III k $ l til lb GREAT FOR off PICKUP unit to float over wot fields lo dtstnlnili loads our a wide area Made to opi tale effec tiel with minimum ground conipa lion with special flniation PANEL VAN AND Oil 5 6 pi. tyre o jrvnail 5? ? fed Tai and tee ycur vehicle Ogg48 180" 12 4x38 4 ply CAMPER' Ex Tax rating plus $5 54 ana tee off your tractor Fed 15 5x38 Ia Ex GOODYEAR'S In Tdd .or to coverage '( re Jtrd coed ons as Ou! eC c fat'- - e s li'f Art ustmeTorc-- e Power lo'qe aro spec a Sure Gnp ca f'aci HA b'aroeo or noi a3 Sre' FOR 16 75 It Al 13 thru 14 znJ C78 14 p to 4IC nst Fed i re Recovery (depending on sice 5 DJ8 15" Mode1 tai p( 70 eafi thru 62( evt 16" Ccup in 4 15 16 p us 42C TOO ti Calcium solution tank with pump to fill or dram a tire fast 2 The right tire for your farming needs from the Goodyear full line to 3 led ti Tii per tire (depending on sue Re overy Padded sling power hoist to protect your tire and put into position, 4 LARGER CARS NO MS it on r tank pumps up to 200 pounds of pressure Compressed-ai- 5 Hydraulic ack capable of ing 3,000 pounds re M?8 15 ind 378 15 54 to 55C est f i Ti Recovery t depending fed per ON-FAR- GREAT WAGON TIRE VALUE!

Hence, even with the pumping, the cost of delaying the bloom would have been only the cost of protection by heating. The reduction in energy consumed by sprinkling for bloom delay of 375 gallons of water per acre is very significant in this time of energy crisis. April 26 they had a calculated delay in the date of bloom of 14 days. The cost of this delay was $60 for water for the three acres or $20 per acre. During the spring the orchards were heated on seven nights for a total heating time of 40 hours. On the acreage heated by butane gas the cost was $1,800. SMALL TRACTORS TRACTION ki cluding depreciation of the equipment was $12 per acre per method including depreciation cost only $1.45 per acre per hour. The other method developed at Utah State university consists of sprinkling during the day time, whenever the temperature is above 45 degrees to delay the time when the trees will bloom until danger of freezing temperatures is past. Last year a three-acr- e plot in Orem was sprinkled on March 15 to delay bloom of the trees.

That is $90 per acre for fuel compared to $20 per acre for bloom delay. The water on the sprinkled three acre plot was under gravity flow and did not require pumps to build up the pressure. If pumping had been required, it is estimated that it would have required a little over 5,000 contrast, the sprinkling By seriously damaged the trees by limb breakage. New methods of pruning and use of smaller trees has somewhat reduced this damage and it is now being used in many states as an effective method of freeze protection. When Says Richardson, comparing the costs of this method with other methods of freeze protection, it is an extremely economical method. For example, in 1974 the average cost of heating with conventional oil heaters in- fruit trees against losses from late spring freezes. This method of protection is of two types. of $$4 $11.50 YOUR CHOICE 00x16 or 6 7015 |
