GETTYSBURG, Pa. -
Adams County ranks first in
the state in the production of
apples, peaches, and pears,
and tee majority of that fruit
is grown in a “fruit belt”
area about four miles wide
and ten miles long, located
on tee eastern slope of tee
South Mountain, near
Gettysburg. There farmers
seem to be following tee
trend of planting smaller
trees of tee dwarf and semi
dwarf varieties in denser
plantings.
The reason behind smaller
trees in close density
plantings is that tee trees are
more economical and easier
to manage. There is less
labor involved in pruning the
trees and picking tee fruit.
Harvest help is usually
easier to get. The smaller
trees seem to come into
bearing earlier in tee season.
Spraying equipment is
smaller and less expensive.

Orchards tend to produce
better where they have a
gravelly, sandy soil in a hilly
area. Hills are important
because they protect tee
orchard from tee stiff winds
coming over tee mountain,
give good water drainage to
the area, and they provide
good air drainage from tee
breezes. Hills are usually
warmer than tee valley area
below teem and tee moisture
dries quicker. These con
ditions all add to making
excellent orchards. Most of
these conditions can be found
in the “fruit belt” area of
Adams County.
The fruit crop this year in
Adams County, according to
County Extension Agent
Thomas Piper, should be
somewhat better than last
'year but still slightly below
normal. This is because of
weather conditions at
pollination time in April
when there was frost.
