December Growers are busy with normal winter cultural activities during December such as weed control, fertilizing, and pruning. Growers also have to irrigate their orchards due to the lack of precipitation. Cold nights are beneficial for the dormancy of fruit trees and grape vines. Preparation for replanting of some trees is also active.
