Programme: All

The investment project envisages the restoration of an apple orchard, the old one being uprooted by the farmer. Mechanization and improvement of the conditions for development of an orchard in a rural area are also envisaged. The agricultural producer cultivates 914,437 decares of land in the lands of the town of Karnobat, the village of Cherkovo and the village of Sokolovo, Burgas district.
The apple orchard will be established on an area of ​​26 decares in properties cultivated by the applicant on the land of the village of Sokolovo.
The apple is the most popular fruit species in our country.
It is a perennial species that reaches a height of 7-8 m according to the conditions and the substrate, and lives up to 50-70 years. The tree blooms relatively later, which is why spring frosts are less common.
Usually the flowering period and the duration of the process are characteristic varietal characteristics. The apple is one of the most cold-resistant fruit species in the temperate climate zone. During the winter it can withstand minus 29-32 degrees.
The best time to plant apple trees is between late October and early March.
As the aim is to produce organic products, it is necessary to apply organic fertilizers every two years.
The apple is a precocious fruit species and comes into fruition in the second year, when it can give 20-30% of the maximum yield for the crop. In the third year, apples can reach 60-70% of full yield.
In order to implement the main technological measures, as well as to improve the quality of the produced fruits, the purchase of agricultural machinery and attached equipment is envisaged.
