Peaches
will never be cheap because of the expensive land, the fuel, weed
control, fertilizer, annual pruning, the sprays, and the intensive
labor requirements. It takes at least three years to bring a tree
into production and the trees require care whether they have peaches
or not. There are may hazards in the business and peaches are vulnerable
to hail, wind, heavy rains, late freezes, and insects, making us
wonder how any perfect peaches are ever picked. They are indeed
things of beauty and the queen of fruit. |
