Orchards not profitable for average Iowa homeowner

Iowa State Extension horticulture specialist Ed Cott says growing an orchard is not a paying proposition for most homeowners unless treated as a hobby. He notes time and money spent in pruning and spraying over years exceed the value of the apples, and advises selecting varieties, considering semi dwarf trees, and planning 10 to 12 sprayings annually for clean fruit. He lists Jonathan, Red Delicious, Jonadel, Sharon, Haralson, Minjon, and Prairie Spy as suitable Iowa options and suggests consulting the Midwest Farm Handbook at county extension offices.
