Growing organic citrus fruits
What a pleasure to pick oranges, lemons, clementines, kumquats, mandarins, grapefruits, pomelos, or even yuzus in your own garden!
Citrus fruits are the most cultivated fruits in the world and are among the most sold tree species in garden centers. However, growing them, especially organically, is not so easy and can lead to bitter failures. Contrary to popular belief, citrus fruits can be grown in almost any climate (except mountainous areas), not just in the Mediterranean region.
This book, written by Jean-Noël Falcou, an organic citrus grower from the Alpes-Maritimes, a pioneer in organic citrus orchard management, will guide you through all the steps of organic citrus production: from choosing varieties suitable for your climate, to harvesting and preservation, including planting – in the ground, under greenhouse or in pots – and care (watering, pruning, soil management, fertilizers and amendments, diseases and pests).
In this book, you will discover the diversity of these citrus fruits: fruits of all shapes, colors, ranging from a few grams to several kilos, cold-resistant down to -20°C depending on the species, capable of growing in a wide variety of soils.
A reference book with clear and educational content, supported by numerous illustrations, providing all the conditions for success for the general public and those looking to embark on this profession!
