A study in Washington State found that worker productivity averaged about 18 boxes per hour in dwarf orchards—compared with less than 12 in orchards planted to standard size trees. In standard orchards, where tree height is at least 13 feet, workers spend up to a third of their time moving and climbing ladders to reach apples that may be as high as 25 feet. Largely because of the cumbersome ladders, experienced male workers outpick women by more than four boxes per hour. Besides easy-to-pick apples, dwarf orchards offer pickers another advantage. During the 1968 harvest, workers’ earnings— determined by the piece rate times the picking rate —averaged $3.37 per hour in dwarf orchards. Pickers in conventional orchards averaged $2.53.
