4 Managing Nitrogen in Almonds: 4Rs Base fertilization rate on realistic, orchard specific yield Account for all N inputs Adjust in response to spring nutrient and yield estimates Conduct (properly!) a leaf analysis following full leaf out. In May, review leaf analysis results, update yield estimate and adjust. At harvest review yields to adjust post harvest Time applications to match demand - as many split applications as feasible» 80% N uptake occurs from full leaf out to kernel fill.» Apply up to 20% hull split to immediately post harvest, corrected for actual yield - but only if trees are healthy. Use foliars if N loss is possible.» Optimize everything! Every field, every year, is a unique decision 4

14 About leaf sampling in May vs. July/August July/August leaf sampling is useful to monitor performance or ID deficiencies but is not a management strategy Provides no rate or timing information Too late to respond for this year, too early for next year. UCD has developed Early Leaf Sampling (UCD-ESP) methods for Almond and Pistachio Useful as a means to determine if leaves will have adequate N for the season Several labs have adopted these methods Ask your lab if they use the UCD-ESP program 14
15 Sampling Criteria: Collect leaves from 18 to 28 trees in one bag (depending of the confidence level and on the number of acres). Each tree sampled at least 30 yards apart. In each tree collect leaves around the canopy from at least 8 well exposed spurs located between 5-7 feet from the ground. In April, collect samples at 8121 GDH +/ (43 days after full bloom (DAFB) +/- 6 days). If you would like to collect samples in July, then collect samples at 143 DAFB +/- 4 days. SAME RULES! 15
