Preliminary technical concept

A design intended for professional, mechanisable and digitally managed farming. Final parameters must be validated by a specialist.

Reference parameters

Target productive area: 40 ha
Reference spacing: 6 × 5 m
Estimated density: 333 trees/ha
Theoretical trees: ~13,333
Average price per plant: €12
Irrigation: Drip irrigation with fertigation
Monitoring: Weather station, sensors and irrigation control

Variety mix

A mixed planting: two producing cultivars, each with its own pollinator.

Cultivar	Role	Pair	Trees	Share
Kerman	Producing	Peter	7,000	62.7%
Peter	Pollinator	Kerman	780	7.0%
Sirora	Producing	C-Especial	3,000	26.9%
C-Especial	Pollinator	Sirora	380	3.4%
Total allocated			11,160	100 %

Producing trees 10,000

Kerman + Peter 9.0:1 · Sirora + C-Especial 7.9:1

Pollinators 1,160

10.4%

Producing trees per pollinator 8.6:1

Still to allocate ~2,200

Theoretical trees: ~13,300

The cultivars add up to fewer trees than the spacing implies: the difference is the final split of producing trees and pollinators, to be set parcel by parcel.

Placement across the estate

Earlier-flowering cultivars go in the colder parts of the estate and later-flowering ones in the warmer parts, following the temperature differences between parcels.

Open technical decisions

The agronomic parameters are not final. They require soil and water analysis, accumulated chill and heat, and frost risk assessment.
