Garden Planning: Ways for Growing Fruit
Work toward home-made food self-sufficiency(自给自足) by developing a plan for growing fruit.
Once you know how many servings your family needs per year of fruits, use some information to know how much space that will be provided for them in your garden. We've provided the number of production because production will change widely because of the water, weather, land quality and other parts of your garden. For step-by-step instructions on how to use the numbers in this chart, see "Plan How Much to Grow" in A Plan for Food Self-Sufficiency.
Fruit | Biointensive Yield(密集型产量)(lbs./100 sq. ft.)(磅/ 100平方) | Average Yield(平均产量)(lbs./100 sq. ft.) | Half-Cup Servings Per Pound |
Apples | 50-75 | 51 | 2.8 |
Grapes | 45-67 | 31 | 1.9 |
Pears | 36-72 | 67 | 3.4 |
Strawberries | 40-80 | 102 | 6 |
Watermelon | 50-100 | 59 | 2.7 |
