Preparing for Almond Harvest with Franz Niederholzer
Franz Niederholzer discusses almond orchard pre-harvest preparations. Franz mentions some herbicide names, this does not constitute a pesticide recommendation, consult with your PCA and always read the label. Finally, the audio quality for our conversation is not ideal. However, Franz has really great information to share, so we appreciate your patience with the audio.
