In Season 2, Episode 1 of our fruit and vegetable podcast What's Killing My Kale? we take a deep dive into fruit bud injury with Dr. Amaya Atucha of University of Wisconsin-Madison. Dr. Atucha has a wealth of knowledge on this topic, so it made for a fascinating and useful conversation that we think fruit growers will find very helpful!
Topics covered include:
- What do critical freeze temperatures for fruit buds really mean, and who decided this?
- Is it possible to predict injury before a late freeze event?
- How did this winter impact fruit trees in the upper Midwest?
- What should growers do now to help their trees recover from the winter and produce a healthy crop?
