The olive trees are in bloom. The climate can speed up or slow down fertilization, depending on the temperatures.\u00a0
\ud83d\udc1dRemember that the presence of bees and their precious work is essential for pollination, guaranteeing the reproductive cycle from year to year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Here are the main activities I carry out on my land in June:<\/p>\n\n\n\n


<\/strong>\ud83c\udf33<\/strong>Monitoring of the soil and plants in their entirety (flowers, leaves, branches).<\/strong><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Careful observation is a must and this requires time and accuracy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\ud83d\udca7<\/strong> Irrigation:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

At the beginning of summer, the adult plants are not suffering, while for the younger ones I provide for their periodic watering.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\ud83e\udeb0<\/strong> Phytosanitary defense:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The greatest danger comes from the oil fly. <\/strong>It is important to act promptly in order to reduce or avoid the problem.
I use biological phytosanitary wares.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2702\ufe0f<\/strong> Frond management<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

I remove any dry branches to improve the health of the olive grove.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n\n\n\n
<\/div>\n\n\n\n

As you can see, Summer is a season of fire<\/strong>\ud83d\udd25, not only because of the scorching temperatures! Phytosanitary checks, plant maintenance and irrigation, decisions based on the weather… There is very little time for boredom or for “sloth” mode <\/em>\ud83e\udda5, even if the heat does not help us. \ud83e\udd75<\/p>\n\n\n\n

After all, it is now that the foundations for Autumn production are being laid, so every action counts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
