Objective. 4 – Determine the Economic Effect of ARR and Cost-Benefit of Cultural Practice Adoption
Summary of Objective 4
The proposed cultural practices and newly developed/discovered rootstocks promise to reduce the economic and social impacts of ARR on stone fruit production. An understanding of how increased tree cost impacts the long-term profitability is an essential component of an overall production budget, decisions, and long-term viability of
the industry.
