Nectarines
Nectarines are, in fact, fuzz-less peaches. Nectarine acreage in NYS is small – only about 66 acres of which 26 are located in eastern NY. Like other stone fruits, nectarines thrive in a Mediterranean climate of long, hot summers and cool, wet winters. For more information about tree fruit production, please visit the Cornell Tree Fruit website at http://www.fruit.cornell.edu/tree_fruit/index.htm.

November 2 - November 19, 2019
Are you a vegetable farmer already using tarps? Or are you wondering if and how tarps could work best on your farm?The Cornell Small Farms Program is excited to announce a series of workshops on tarping for reduced tillage in small-scale vegetable systems, to be held in Maine and New York this fall. The Reduced Tillage (RT) project of the Cornell Small Farms Program supports farmers in adopting scale-appropriate RT practices that can lead to healthy, productive soils and greater profitability. Through the evaluation of novel tools and methods using systems-based field research and on-farm trials, the project helps farmers learn about the approaches that can work for their farm. This work is accomplished in collaboration with the University of Maine, and with support from Northeast SARE.
