An orchard is an intentional planting of trees or shrubs that is maintained for food production.

Orchards
comprise fruit- or nut-producing trees which are generally grown for commercial production. Orchards are also
sometimes a feature of large gardens, where they serve an aesthetic as well as a productive purpose.[1] A fruit
garden is generally synonymous with an orchard, although it is set on a smaller non-commercial scale and may
emphasize berry shrubs in preference to fruit trees. Most temperate-zone orchards are laid out in a regular grid,
with a grazed or mown grass or bare soil base that makes maintenance and fruit gathering easy.

Most orchards are planted for a single variety of fruit. While the importance of introducing biodiversity is
recognized in forest plantations, it would seem to be beneficial to introduce some genetic diversity in orchard
plantations as well by interspersing other trees through the orchard. Genetic diversity in an orchard would
provide resilience to pests and diseases just as in forests [2].

Orchards are sometimes concentrated near bodies of water where climatic extremes are moderated and blossom
time is retarded until frost danger is past

seed Orchards
According to the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations, seed orchards focus primarily on
growing trees that produce seeds rather than nuts or fruit. These seeds are then sold to commercial distributors
for resale to the public in small seed packets. They may also be sold to large agricultural facilities or used for
food production. Seed orchards can further be divided into two categories based on how they are established. In
a seedling orchard, trees are selected through controlled pollination. In a clonal seed orchard, seeds are
distributed through methods such as cutting and tissue culture, resulting in an easier harvest overall.

Other Types of Orchards

Some orchard owners focus on products other than fruit, nuts or seeds. This includes Christmas tree farms,
which produce pine trees and holly for the holidays. It may also include tree farms that grow trees for maple
sugar or maple syrup production. According to the MadSci website, coffee-producing facilities are often
considered orchards by many in the industry.

Fruit Orchards
Fruit orchards include any facility focused on growing tree-bearing fruits. Some popular options include apples,
olives, dates and figs. Citrus trees, such as those bearing lemons, limes or oranges, may be grown all together in
large citrus orchards, or individually in smaller facilities. Plantations that grow fruit-bearing bushes generally
don't fall under this category. These include berries and other fruits not grown on trees.

Nut Orchards
Nut orchards include a large variety of facilities that produce nut-bearing trees. These include orchards that
grow popular nuts like pecans, cashews, walnuts and almonds. This category also includes cocoa and chocolate-
producing nuts, as well as coconuts. Some orchard owners produce pine trees for their edible pine nuts.
Orchards that focus on this type of pine production also fall under this category.

determination, and will to succeed is truly worth emulating. Below are three of our successful orchard growers:
Editha Aguinaldo Dacuycuy- Manang Editha ventured into the dragon fruit business when she was told how the
fruit can help relieve constipation problems – a condition common to cerebral palsy patients. Her daughter,
Kate, was suffering from this ailment. Selling at Php 450.00 per kilo, dragon fruit was too expensive for Editha,
so she decided to raise her own fruits in their backyard. From a small plot, they now own a 10-hectare property.
Dubbed as “Dragon Lady”, Manang Editha, together with her husband and daughter, Mimie Mildred), also
expanded their business into dragon fruit ice cream, vegan dragon fruit lumpia, wine, vinegar, and even
empanadita, dumplings, and burger patties. Located in Barangay Paayas, Burgos, Ilocos Norte, REFMAD
Farms ( Rare Eagle Forest Marine and agricultural Development) is now an agritourism showcase offering
research and livelihood training to fellow Ilocanos and interested farmers. No less than President NOYNOY
Aquino awarded Manag Editha for her hardwork, as well as other well- known awarding bodies. Her farm has a
steady market in neighboring provinces in Ilocos Norte and Metro Manila. Dole Philippines orders in bulk,
while hotels in Ilocos Norte are their regular clients. 3
Alfredo M. Yao – The “Juice King of the Philippines, also owns a farm in Negros Occidental aside from Zest –
O Corporation. At 12 years old, he lost his father and grew up doing odd jobs to help his mother feed her family
of six children. One of his jobs was working in a warehouse of a packaging company. Encouraged by the
promising profitability of a packaging format in Europe (Doypack), he bought one and tried to market the
machine to local juice manufacturers. When no factory took notice, he made his own fruit juice and launched
what was to become one of the biggest local juice brands. Patricio Base – With his 3 hectare plantation of
watermelons, honeydew melons, and papaya, he produces crops year-round in Alicia, Isabela. He was able to
send his four children to college with his earnings. He used to grow rice before venturing into watermelons. He

planted Diana watermelons in 3,500 square meters and got 12 tons worth Php 480.00
