Abstract
  • Producing fruit in alternate years (A-Y) in Thornless Evergreen blackberries is economically feasible and a horticulturally sound management practice. The cultural advantages are: less labor is required; pesticide and irrigation re­quirements are reduced; pesticide timing and application are improved; matur­ity of fruit is hastened; and mechanical damage to new canes is reduced. The A-Y yield per fruit-year acre averaged 170 percent of every-year (E-Y) produc­tion. The savings in pre-harvest variable costs per acre for an A-Y compared to an E-Y system were estimated at $419. Given this yield and cost relationship, the economic feasibility of adopting the A-Y system depends on the grower's E-Y yield and the berry price he expects to .receive, less harvest costs.
