The peel of citrus is relatively soft, and it is easy to be damaged when picking, so you need to be careful. Picking oranges is also fastidious, so what problems need to be paid attention to? Let's learn a few more important points.

1. The weather should be right

Picking oranges does not mean that they can be picked at any time, it depends on the weather, if the weather is bad, it will have a great impact on fruit trees, and secondly, it is not conducive to harvest. Picking in rainy, windy and foggy weather is risky and is not suitable for outdoor operation. if the dew is relatively large, it needs to be picked later, and then picked when the dew is dry, otherwise it will easily lead to diseases of fruit trees. Generally, sunny or cool weather is the most suitable for harvesting, which has the least impact on fruit trees except for convenient harvesting.

2. Harvest in batches

When harvesting, you should pay attention to it in batches, and don't pick all the fruits at once, some of which may not be ripe. The first to pick is the upper-middle position of the fruit, such fruit quality is generally the best, can be used as high-quality varieties to seize the market. Picking oranges at the top is best to build ladders and other things, to avoid not high enough need to pull hard, so that the loss will be great. All grades of oranges are packed separately, and if a fruit tree is to be picked completely, it can be picked from the bottom up, as long as you pay attention to the batches.

3. Be careful of the fruit damage

The skin of oranges is very thin, so you should be careful not to hurt the fruit. For safety reasons, pickers should wear gloves to avoid piercing their fingers or stabbing their nails, because oranges rot easily after breaking the skin, which is not conducive to storage and transportation. Scissors are standard for picking, but for the sake of efficiency, no matter whether the fruit is good or not, it is solved by scissors, resulting in varying degrees of damage to many fruits, so we should pay attention to the problem of fruit damage. Harvest the fruit frame should pay attention to the degree of firmness, do not appear protruding on the surface, try to use a round, so that it is not easy to bruise.

4. Do a good job in maintaining fruit trees

After harvest does not mean that the matter is over, but also need to maintain the fruit trees, this is the end of a complete harvest. There will inevitably be some damage in the process of fruit tree harvesting, so these tree species need to be treated so as not to expand the loss. Secondly, the overall disinfection of the orchard, cut fruit left more wounds, at this time the citrus tree will be very vulnerable to foreign germs. Finally, it is appropriate to replenish water and fertilizer, so that some unripe fruits can continue to grow.

These are the problems that need to be paid attention to when the citrus is harvested. Once the citrus is damaged, it will rot quickly in a short time, and then spread to the surrounding fruit. So when you store it, you must check it more, take it out if there is a problem, and don't take this risk.
