Following a thorough site analysis and careful planning, Bravante Farm Management moves to action with the planting and early stage development of your orchard or vineyard. This critical phase is where our meticulous execution meets the ground, ensuring that the foundational work we've done in planning is translated into a thriving agricultural enterprise.
We begin by preparing the soil to create the optimal environment for planting. This includes making any necessary amendments based on the detailed soil analysis conducted during the consultation phase. By adjusting soil properties such as pH and nutrient levels, we ensure that the ground is ready to support the specific crops chosen for your site.
Our relationships with trusted nursery partners are key to sourcing the highest quality plants for your project. We choose nurseries that match our commitment to excellence, selecting robust, healthy plants that are best suited to the planned agricultural environment. We take into consideration the compatibility of the rootstock with the soil, potential disease resistance, and the overall growth potential of the plants.
The planting process is executed with precision and attention to detail. Our team follows best practices to ensure each plant is given the best possible start. This includes correct spacing, depth, and orientation in the field to optimize exposure to sunlight and air circulation, fostering strong and healthy early growth.
In the initial stages of plant development, our management is intensive and detail-oriented. We monitor the young plants closely, adjusting care techniques as needed to account for weather conditions, soil moisture levels, and the presence of pests or diseases. Our goal is to establish a strong, vigorous crop that will grow into a productive and sustainable agricultural operation.
