Hello Hive family.
I hope you all are healthy and feeling good.
Friends, it has been a while since I last wrote a post. The reason for my absence is simple, I am completely busy with farm work. Working in the apple orchards during the winter months keeps me busy from morning to evening. Today I found time to share information related to my apple farms, as well as pictures for Hive.
February is an important month for orchards. Since apple trees are in their dormant phase during winter, it is the perfect time for pruning . Removing dead or excess branches improves air circulation and sunlight reaches the inner parts. Which improves the quality and quantity of apples in the coming season.

It has not rained for a long time nor has it snowed this winter. Which has created dry conditions in the orchard. To deal with this, I am irrigating my orchard using sprinklers.
