Die eienaardige re\u00ebnbuie wat die afgelope paar maande oor die vallei uitsak, het al Kapenaars se dankbaarheid laat vloei, maar ook vele uitdagings oor vrugteboere se boorde gestort.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Volgens een van Paarl Post<\/span> se getroue re\u00ebnval-monitors, Derick Clift, het die hemel se sluise altesaam 128,5 mm in Maart uitgestort, teenoor Februarie se 29 mm. <\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cDit is nie ongewoon om re\u00ebn te kry nie, maar heeltemal ongewoon om sulke frekwensies van re\u00ebnbuie te h\u00ea. Wanneer ons die stormweer wat ons op 16 Desember ervaar het ook in ag neem, en waar daar gevalle van haelskade ook gerapporteer is, dan is dit heeltemal ongewoon!\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n Wanneer jy die afgelope week se re\u00ebn bytel, meen Clift, is dit die 10de front wat oor die afgelope vyf weke re\u00ebn gebring het.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cDit is erg nadelig vir vrugteboere en veral vir die laat kultivars. Die re\u00ebn is nie net nadelig nie, maar beteken ook verlore werksdae en agterstallige produksie.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n Freddie Kirsten, wat met tafeldruiwe en fynbos-blomme in die Paarl op die plaas Eureka boer, voel bietjie verdeeld oor die swaar re\u00ebn wat die afgelope tyd geval het.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Op die vraag oor hoe die re\u00ebnval sy boerdery geaffekteer het en of hy dit verwelkom, s\u00ea Kirsten: \u201cDit is baie moeilik vir my om dit te beantwoord, want kyk, jou interpretasie daarvan gaan wees in watter tyd jy geoes het. Daar is sekere mense se laat tafeldruif-oeste wat negatief be\u00efnvloed is deur die re\u00ebn, want jy wil nie so laat re\u00ebn h\u00ea op jou tafeldruif nie. Ons verwelkom die re\u00ebn, maar uiteraard met tafeldruiwe verkies ons \u2019n dro\u00eb oestyd. Daar was \u2019n klomp re\u00ebn in Desember, in laat Februarie en ook nou in Maart wat nie voordelig is vir tafeldruiwe nie, maar oor die algemeen het ons baie goeie weer deur die seisoen gehad.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n Volgens Kirsten begin oestyd vir tafeldruiwe gewoonlik in die tweede laaste week van Desember. \u201cOns het die einde Februarie klaar geoes, maar tafeldruif-oestyd maak gewoonlik in die Paarl klaar in die laaste of tweede laaste week van Maart. Ons het die re\u00ebn in Maart gemis, maar daar is ander boere wat later tafeldruiwe oes en die klomp re\u00ebn was glad nie positief nie.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n Kirsten het ook gedeel wat die gemiddelde re\u00ebnval is wat die afgelope 80 jaar op die plaas gemeet is.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cOns het in Maart 102 mm re\u00ebn gekry en ons gemiddelde re\u00ebnval vir Maart die afgelope 80 jaar is 22 mm. Ons het in Februarie 22 mm gekry en ons gemiddelde is 17 mm.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n Jacky Goliath, besturende direkteur by De Fynne Nursery wat ook in die Paarl gele\u00eb is, s\u00ea sy ontvang die buitengewone re\u00ebnval in Maart met ope arms.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cVir ons was die re\u00ebn goed, want dit was dan nie nodig om te besproei nie. Geen elektrisiteit is dus gebruik nie en beurtkrag gedurende die nat dae het geen invloed op ons besproeiingsplanne gehad nie.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n Goliath kweek fynbos, inheemse plante en blommende potplante. Sy verduidelik dat hulle ook kontrak-groei vir kli\u00ebnte doen.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cDit beteken waar ons plante\/ bome vir kli\u00ebnte kweek binne \u2019n vasgestelde tydperk teen \u2019n vasgestelde prys. Ons maak, okuleer en groei ook vrugtebome in plant\u00adsakke vir die tuinbou-kleinhandel en kommersi\u00eble landboubedryf.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n Soos met die swaar re\u00ebn wat onlangs geval het, let Goliath ook op dat die weer al meer koeler is in Maart as ander jare. Sy s\u00ea die koe\u00adler weer kan dus daartoe lei dat pot\u00adplante vroe\u00ebr as gewoonlik begin blom. \u201cDit kan \u2019n voor- en nadeel wees, want jy kom \u00f3f vroe\u00ebr in die mark, \u00f3f jou beplanning is heel van koers af met die blommende potplante wat bestem was vir \u2019n sekere tydperk en mark.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Die eienaardige
