The Growing of Dewberries in Plateau Valley Orchards
The dewberry crop provides modest income from small plantings in higher altitudes. Proper pruning, winter protection, and careful handling boost yields, with five feet between hills and careful packing to avoid spoilage. A bearing plantation can yield 300 to 400 crates per acre, at about 2.25 dollars per crate, yielding roughly 300 to 400 dollars per acre net, depending on costs.
