PLANTING SEASONS/ TIMING/SEEDLINGS BOOKING

In Uganda, we have 2 planting seasons, the 1st usually stretches from End of February-June across the Country, while it may start in end of February in the central region (and due to Climate Change issues), t may start in March, April etc, in other parts of the Country. The 2nd planting season in different parts of the Country starts in July and stretches to December, but setting off differently across the Country.

To plant at the onset of the 1st RAINSyou need to prepare the land early e.g. from November to end of December, do pitting when the soils are still soft, no need for ploughing, if you’re not going to plant other crops, remember at the spacing of 6x4m, you can inter-crop your garden upto 6 years. For those who have ready financial resources, you can prepare the land and dig the holes as early as June/July, apply manure in the dry season when it is available e.g. Cow Dung, Goat droppings, kindly don’t use chicken manure. Booking seedlings, we usually take orders 3 months to the planting season for those who really need mature and high quality seedlings which are well established and hardened enough.

Maturity Period

Hass avocados mature starts fruiting at 16 months for serious farmers, that is when all agronomical practices have been met e.g. buying good seedlings, timely planting at the onset of rains, timely manure application, timely application of pesticides in case of any infections (very rare) and provision of water during the dry season. For casual and mother nature farmers, 1st commercial harvest will come at between 2.5 to 3 years, for committed farmers, the first fruiting will start at 18 months.

Weather / Climate / & Soils Requirements

Although avocados are fairly resistant to drought, well distributed rainfall of between 1000-1200mm is adequate for proper crop development. They also require well drained soils to avoid root rot. The best soils are sandy or alluvial loams with pH ranging between 5 - 7. Considering all the top 10 HASS Avocado producing and exporting Countries, Uganda has the best soils and climate for the HASS Avocado crop. Take a look at this documentary from Chile, the 2nd world producer and exporter, it is 30% a desert with the hottest place on the earth, the Artacama Desert, Israel is equally a big exporter, with 60% of its land as a desert.
