How many kilograms of cherry are generally produced per mu? How much is the net profit per mu?

Cherry yield per mu

There are relatively few orchards that concentrate on growing cherries. Due to planting technology and environmental issues, cherry production is very uneven. The higher yields are around 3,000 kilograms per mu, while the lower yields may only be a few hundred kilograms.

Prospects for cherry cultivation

The general cost of cherry seedlings is about 2,000 yuan. Under good circumstances, one acre of land can produce about 1,500 kilograms of cherries, but the cost of manual picking must be added. The management fee is about 3,000 yuan, the fertilizer and pesticide are about 2,000 yuan, and the land contract fee is about 1,000 yuan.

The current market price of cherries is around 30 yuan. Excluding costs, each acre of land is about 37,000 yuan. The economic benefits are relatively good. Moreover, people now have a great demand for cherries, and the planting prospects are promising.

How to grow cherries to get high yields

1. Deeply plow the soil

Big cherries are suitable for planting in loose, fertile, air-permeable and well-drained sandy soil. If you want to grow big cherries well, you must first deep plow the land. Generally, deep plowing is done in the rainy season. The purpose of doing this is to achieve better results and the soil can also get sufficient water.

2. Cultivate and loosen the soil

Because the roots of big cherries are shallow, the roots have very strict requirements for water in the soil. Sometimes the roots of cherries have not fully grown, and we need to loosen the soil artificially to help the roots breathe well and make the roots of big cherries breathable.

3. Prevention of diseases and insect pests

Many times, cherries will be infected by diseases and pests if you are not careful. At this time, you must apply medicine in time, otherwise it will affect the quality and yield of cherries. Generally, you must take preventive measures from the time of sowing, observe the condition of the cherries in time, analyze the cause of the disease, and use medicine scientifically.

4. Moisture management

Big cherries have extremely high requirements for water and need to be watered based on the moisture content of the soil and the weather temperature. If they are watered too much, it will cause water accumulation, which will cause a lack of oxygen in the soil and the roots will not be able to breathe normally. In severe cases, it will cause root rot.
