Cherries in Central Otago - feasible or folly?
Abstract
The general essence of this report was to establish whether cherries are a viable
diversification on a sheep, beef and deer farm at Teviot in the Teviot valley
( Roxburgh ), Central Otago.
This document was also produced to assist others who may be thinking of establishing
a cherry orchard and require a reference or starting point to start their investigations,
giving them an overview of the present status of the industry.
This report aims to compare and analyse the cost structures and returns from
traditional cherry growing methods as compared to newer dwarf or "Bonsai" type
methods.
